Heroes Con, Charlotte’s annual comic book convention, brought thousands of fans to Uptown over the weekend. According to their website:
Heroes Convention was founded in 1982 by Shelton Drum, owner of Charlotte’s Heroes Aren’t Hard To Find comics shop. Since then the convention has become famous for its comics-first and family-friendly atmosphere, where fans can mingle directly with professionals and exhibitors. Boasting an incredible guest list built mainly on reputation and goodwill, Heroes Con is known nationwide as a “must” on the summer schedule, drawing fans, exhibitors, and creators from every region of the country to the Charlotte Convention Center.
You can follow Heroes Aren’t Hard to Find on Twitter. View the photo slideshow after the page break.
