Going to a Supernatural convention is a privilege and a joy beyond measure. It is, however, a treat that many fans know they will never be able to enjoy. Thousands of people attend conventions, but that is a relatively small number compared to the millions of people in the Supernatural worldwide fandom. Conventions are an…
Facing forward from left to right: Mark Meloche, the VFX team (seated behind Mark), Theo Devaney and Ryan Curtis (seated, talking to Mark). For the past two years, the Supernatural VFX (Visual Effects) Team has ventured out of their Vancouver studio offices to meet with fans the day after the Vancouver Supernatural convention ends. This…
It’s Salute to Supernatural Toronto this weekend and WFB writer Gerry Weaver has been there all weekend enjoying the festivities. She’s been sharing a lot of her experiences via Twitter, and thanks to Storify we’re able to share them here.
We’ve covered so much of the fun that made up Supernatural’s 2014 convention in Vancouver! If you need to catch up, here are my articles from Friday, Saturday morning and afternoon, plus J2’s panel on Sunday, but the party wasn’t over yet. Sunday was like a bonus day, full of return engagements. Some people were…
After having to settle for a poster from the vendor’s room at last year’s Van Con, I decided to take matters into my own hands. The poster itself was cool, don’t get me wrong—but it just didn’t seem to represent me as a fan. I wanted something a bit more significant. And so, if I…
(Photo courtesy of Fangasm) Warning: There are mild spoilers for Season 10 in this report. Cost and logistics are making it increasingly harder for me to attend the Supernatural New Jersey conventions, especially Q and A sessions with guests, but I was able to go to Jared and Jensen’s Meet and Greets again last weekend,…
Sunday. To fans at a Supernatural convention, and to Supernatural fans around the world who wait for live tweets and coveted pictures, Sunday is better known as J2 Day! It is the day that Jensen and Jared take the stage, sign autographs, pose for photographs and talk with devoted fans. By now you have probably…
Supernatural fan conventions inspire in so many ways that we can’t possibly imagine. Fans go to these conventions often times with a story of triumph or inspiration, often sharing how Supernatural has truly affected their lives.
Part 1 of my report on “M” day (aka Saturday) at the Vancouver Supernatural convention featured the indomitable Mark Sheppard, plus Tahmoh Penikett, Matt Cohen and the myriad of other guests who had shared Friday’s fun with us. Saturday afternoon’s fun began with a splash, watching Gil McKinney and Matt Cohen get wet for the…
Saturday morning. The dreaded “morning after” Karaoke. Everyone is more than a little blurry eyed and definitely a bit sluggish. I turned in at 2 a.m., and that was only because I left before Karaoke was over! Rob Benedict and the Elastic Waste Band opened Saturday’s festivities because Richard Speight, Jr., our fearless leader, was…
VanCon. I’ve always wanted to go to this convention above all others (yes, even more than Jus In Bello in Rome!) because it affords the opportunity to interact with Supernatural’s production staff. In years past, I sat at home enviously reading attendees’ live tweets about actors’ panels and photo ops with Jared, Jensen, Misha or…
Sunday, J2 Day! Well, it was a bit more than that. There was an awesome panel involving a King and Queen of Hell, J2 on the stage twice messing with things like a new Twitter account for Jensen and a well placed fan at the back of the stage that provided loads of entertainment. We…
