    2021 is the second year without the annual nerd pilgrimage to San Diego, CA for Comic Con. While officially, the convention is NOT happening in person this year, that didn’t stop fans and cosplayers from gathering in the Gas Lamp District.

    Paying their respects to the hub of ‘the steps’ that separate halves of the convention center, cosplayers took the opportunity to take a group photo.

    Even the Tin Fish, another notable location for SDCC regulars, played part in the celebration.

    So, here’s hoping the current vaccination rate continues to grow so large-scale, in-person events can return in 2022.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
