The 2023 Emerald City Comic Con
The Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle was on March 2-5 ! Once again Ron received a press pass and was able check out the events in the new Seattle Convention Center Summit Building. Since it is a brand new building it was finally great to have all events in one place. Ron was able to see some Main Stage events including the Scream Reunion Panel with Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard and Jamie Kennedy. He was also able to attend the Fantasy vs Science Fiction Panel with stellar authors such as Sylvain Neuvel (author of the acclaimed Themis Files and Take Them to the Stars trilogies), Delilah S. Dawson (recent Bram Stoker nominee for Camp Scare, the acclaimed book The Violence, Star Wars novels, The Blud Series), John Jackson Miller (amazing author of both Star Trek and Star Wars novels. His latest is Star Trek Strange New Worlds: The High Country), and the legendary Terry Brooks (author of The Shannara Chronicles, and one of the most important fantasy writers ever). The panel was hosted by Shawn Speakman (author of The King-Killing Queen). After the panel Ron was finally able to meet frequent guest on the Wrath of the iOtians podcast, and the most interesting man in science fiction, Sylvain Neuvel! They chatted about his experience at ECCC and his new novel For the First Time, Again (Book 3 of the Take Them to the Stars trilogy).
