Web comics, flash animations, podcasts, and more OH MY! We’re the con that remembers the media that others forget. We want to bring to light the content that other events don’t always have the time for, that might be long forgotten and even looked past. Find your niche at ALTERNICON!
Backstory:
In summer of 2013, three friends had a vision: to create a smaller, less commercialized fan conference, where the intimate atmosphere would inspire more meaningful, in-depth discussions, and where strangers could become lifelong friends. A con with less hustle and bustle. A con where a fandom that’s typically overlooked could finally reach its full potential.
With the help of Boston comic book stores like Comicazi and local meetup groups like Bostonstuck, we’re working to make this daring dream a reality. But we can’t do it without YOU. Alternicon is a convention that’s FOR fans, BY fans — and that makes you the star!
