MisCon 32: Year of Lost Heroes (May 25 - 28, 2018)

MisCons Past

The skyscrapers are devoid of webs and bat ropes. Calls for help go unanswered. The taverns are empty of dwarven rogues with hearts of gold, idealistic mutants, and fledgling reporters ready to save the world.

Where have all the heroes gone?

In this age where goblins trudge past street gangs on their way to the factories, and everyday citizens hurry home to avoid being robbed, the supervillains and syndicates are winning.

Rumors abound: An army of cyborg rats is sneaking around in the sewers... has Dr. Ratistopheles returned? A scrawny swamp dragon has been circling over Mount Sentinel, a dark-cloaked figure on her back. Iron Mutant escaped from the asylum and was last seen lurking around Caras Park. And that peculiar purple and green light flashing from the hotel penthouse? Yeah, it makes us uneasy too.

We keep shining the signal into the night sky, but the call goes unanswered.

Bleak times have descended upon us . . .

Will you don a cape and some spandex? How about a suit of dragonscale armor and a battleaxe?

It's your choice: become one of the heroes MisCon 32 so desperately needs, or join the villains and plague us all with your riddles, labyrinths, and mutant experiments.

While you're working on costumes, panel ideas, and game scenarios, think about a fun mashup of epic fantasy with superheroes and villains of all kinds.

To get in the mood, read any of MisCon 32 Author GoH Brandon Sanderson's novels, check out all things Marvel and DC, and play some Dungeons and Dragons, Final Fantasy, or Skyrim. Watch the Incredibles, Wonder Woman, Deadpool, Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, Labyrinth, Record of Lodoss War, Sailor Moon, One Punch Man, the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire.

Put on a costume and help bring MisCon 32 to life.
