Warrior Con is family-friendly and jam packed comic con held at Maine West High School in the Chicago suburban city of Des Plaines which aims to support the Maine West Fine Arts Boosters. This was the second year for the show, held on Saturday, November 22nd, and featured some National and Chicagoland’s artists and illustrators, headlined by creator/writer Phillip Kennedy Johnson, best known for his work on Superman/Action Comics, Batman and Robin, The Incredible Hulk, Alien, and 007.I had a chance to talk with a number of the artists, authors and vendors during the event about how they came to the show and about what they had on hand for those in attendance.Bernie Gerstmayer - Organizer - Fine Arts Teacher, Maine West High SchoolMinerva Fox - Artist @blue_trollerLee and Jamie Strange Deer Press @strange_deerKyle Faehnrich Goons & Goblins @goonsngoblins Art Baltazar artist artbaltazar.com Derek Shriver - Tweaks Toys, Chicago Trade FederationJeff McCune and Jason Fleigel - Chicago Trade FederationPhillip Kennedy Johnson - Comic creator/writer @phillipkjohnson phillipkennedyjohnson.com Beth Zwolski Tobias chalk Girl @thechalkgirl Bret Juliano - Dust Bunny Mafia @dustbunnymafiaRyan Vila @the_vilartist@warriorcon on Instagramwarrior-con websiteIf you have a question or comment, find me on the  socials: Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, Bluesky & Substack,  @rebelbasecard Check out the TeePublic store and you can be helping out the show while finding some cool swag. ⁠TeePublic Store⁠Find me on the Topps Digital Apps like Star Wars Card Trader, Marvel, Disney Collect and BUNT @CORNFEDTECHYou can also help out the show by rating The Rebel Base Card Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
