A Hero for These Times - Camden Comic Con Goes Virtual

By Jesse North & Dave Tavani, JerseyArts.com

originally published: 04/09/2021


There's never been a better time for a superhero. Luckily, Camden Comic Con is here to save the day. Started at Rutgers-Camden Center for the Arts in 2014, this celebration of all things graphic, illustrated, and heroic is going virtual this year due to the pandemic, but its powers remain strong. Jesse and Dave talk to some of the organizers behind this increasingly popular event to find out how this year's convention came together.

Camden Comic Con will be online from April 12 through May 15, 2021.
