A Wrap-Up Of ROB-CON 2016!

By Jeremy Meltingtallow

This past weekend, I was honored to be an invited guest at my very first Rob-Con! This is the Tri-Cities Largest Comic Book Convention and featured many guests, comics, toys, costumes, games and more! The Tri-Cities region is comprised of the cities of Kingsport, Johnson City, and Bristol and the surrounding smaller towns and communities in Northeast Tennessee. Here are a few photos from the fantastic event:

I really enjoy doing these types of events where I am able to get to meet so many of them! A Snuffy Smith fan shows me a Snuffy Smith Sunday comic strip he saved since 1966!
