Heroes, villains, droids and Daleks and were all on hand as fans gathered to meet their favorite artists, writers and entertainers at Chicago’s C2E2 pop culture extravaganza.
For the convention’s 10th anniversary, such high-profile events as a Clueless cast reunion and an interview with David Tennant drew attendees from all across the Midwest—and even as far as Ireland and Columbia.
The three-day extravaganza also featured gaming competitions, screenings from AMC and Shudder, in addition to panels on topics ranging from comic book costume design to diversity in horror and the Spider-Verse.
Our heroic photographer Heather Kaplan channeled her inner Peter Parker and captured the cosplay, the comics, and the comedy for our gallery below. Follow her work on Instagram, and give us an add while you’re at it, too.
