I attended Flamecon last week and it was a blast. Medium sized LGBTQ+ comic and gaming con, based in NYC. It isn't a big con and if you love comics, games, and rpgs (I know you do), you should go check it out next year. If you wanna learn more I made a handy review! youtu.be/Rn6jrm0UOEE

The best thing to happen to me at Flame Con today was either @gregpak.net's reaction to me telling him I had seen his short film ASIAN PRIDE PORN (look it up!) as a teenager and it had always stuck with me or finally meeting the illustrious @saracentury.bsky.social in person!

What a great Flame Con. Always suputb to spend a weekend surrounded by queers, but to also be part of a wonderful panel with some of my favorite people in comics, to have sold all the books I brought with me, *and* to have met so many people my books have meant so much to was an unmitigated delight.

delicious flame con haul ..;;:.. this is my only con this year so I indulged. If I pretend s3 doesn’t exist I can still justify buying vampire fanart and there’s some good shit out there (including the louclaudia print from fruitgravy I’ve been wanting for YEARS atp, I’m so excited)

This year's Flame Con was a huge step up for me professionally. Not only did I sell enough and profit off my table, but I also got to meet a variety of peers in the industry and do several art trade with friends. It honestly felt like a better year than before and I hope to return next year.

So in case you were wondering about the vibes at Flame Con, one attendee was dressed as the time that Fabio was on a roller coaster and killed a seagull when it collided with his face. (Complimentary)
