Prefer to be persuaded face-to-face? Representatives from Philcon appear at many local fannish events during the year, including most recently Wizard World Philadephia Comic Con (June 11-13). We've also had a presence at Phoenixville's Blobfest, at book fairs, and at kindred conventions like Albacon, Balticon, and Lunacon. Let us talk up the fun that is Philcon, and get a bookmark for your time.
