Welllllllll, it is about a certain segment of pop culture having to do with super hero movies, comic books, and art and books having to do with that certain segment of culture. Fans show up in costumes portraying their favorite characters. I didn&#8217;t know hardly any of them. Except for like Mario and Luigi, Freddy Krueger, and others. Basically super heroes, and super villains and a sprinkling of cartoon characters. Logan was my guide, he\u00a0knew who everybody was supposed to be.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"IMG_0518 by alnbbates, on Flickr\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/28381904@N06\/15124425403\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7503\/15124425403_b944e324fd_z.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_0518\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There were also booths were you get autographs, for a price, of actors and authors. Again, I didn&#8217;t know who any of them were except for William Shatner. And unsurprisingly Logan knew most of them.
