Talk about a takeover. Beginning at noon today Comicpalooza 2018 opened up at the George R. Brown and so far so good; everybody seems pretty happy about it.

You can still buy one- or three day tickets to see celebrities such as actors Tom Holland, John Cusack, Krysten Ritter, Charlie Cox... well the list goes on and on. For the really serious there's comic book creating icons Scottie Young, Mark Waid, Michael Golden and Paul Pope.
