WonderCon In Anaheim April 1-3, 2022

by sebulia

This was the first in-person WonderCon in three years; Jules and I attended panels on "Superman & Lois," "StarTrek: Picard" and "Cheech and Chong," along with many others. Had a great time! Each photo is captioned for ease of perusal. Read more about it here: musingsofamiddleagedgeek.blog/2022/04/04/wondercon-2022-i...
Enjoy!
