Going to WonderCon in Anaheim next week? Then you might want to get in on some of Dark Horse’s signings and giveaways.
WonderCon will be happening at the Anaheim convention center in California next Friday (the 29th) through Sunday (the 31st). Publisher Dark Horse Comics will be firmly ensconced in all the comic con awesomeness at booth #819 and will have tons of stuff going on all show long.
If you head over to the booth (and you should), you’ll be greeted with signings and free stuff by the truckload. Now, the kicker is that all the freebies you’re about to see listed are ‘first come, first serve’. And that basically means that you better get on line early if you want the good stuff- or you’re probably going to be out of luck.
Also, take note of the events that are going to be ticketed as you’ll need a special ticket to queue up for those. Some of the events might be capped or switched up to ‘ticketed’ if needed too, so don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Here’s Dark Horse Comics’ lineup of events for the show:
