Tampa Bay Comic Con is set to make a grand return from August 23-25 at the Tampa Convention Center. This year’s event promises to be a spectacular celebration of pop culture, featuring a vast pop culture collectors and vintage market, engaging panel discussions with industry legends, exciting autograph signings, and photo ops. Of course, fans can look forward to witnessing some of the best cosplay ever seen. This is in addition to the big Blockbuster Experience.

There’s nothing quite like spotting your favorite characters from film and television biking, scooting, and strolling along the Tampa Riverwalk on a Saturday afternoon. I’ll never forget fist-bumping Deadpool while in line for a grouper sandwich at Big Ray’s Fish Camp.
