This past weekend was Infinity Con Gainesville 2025. This was the second and my first IC Gainesville. I had a scheduling conflict last year and wasn't able to attend till this year. The venue for ICG was AMAZING! The space was large and well lit and offered up loads of space for all the great vendors, artists, and guests that were in attendance. This was the type of event I would have gladly attended and would have pored over the boxes of comics, old toys, and records. But alas, I had to be at my table and was not able to take in as much of the show as I would have liked. I was part of two panels, the first, a solo panel on Saturday, was about my career, and the second, on Sunday, was a trio of panelists discussing world-building. I had a great time sharing the Grand Bazaar with new people as well as reconnecting with convention friends and artists. MANY thanks to David and his entire team for making it a fun weekend. I did manage to take a few, but not many, images of the con.
My booth at Infinity Con Gainesville 2025.
The Infinity Con team takes good care of me, and I am forever appreciative.
A look at my booth before I got started.
Just a little bit of a glowup!
Friday night allowed me some downtime before the show, and I spent that time in my sketchbook.
A look at the entirety of the show from the VIP balcony.
The 501st brought everything they had... and then some.
These are the Droids I was looking for.
Grogu was enjoying himself as well.
This was an interesting display of Pokémon/Squid Games mashup.
At some point on Saturday, this little unicorn appeared on the floor in front of the booth. I assumed it was dropped, so I left it, hoping that its owner would return to find it. Eventually, the folks across from me came over and picked it up and placed it at the corner of my table, again, hoping that it would be reunited with its owner. By teardown on Sunday afternoon, it was still hanging out at my booth and has since returned home with me. I guess I have a unicorn now.
And that which was, must be undone. In a flash, the two days were over, and it was time to head home.
Again, thanks to David and the entire ICG team, those set up around me at the show, and to all those who came to my booth!
That is all for another exciting Wednesday on the blog. See you back here on Friday! Until then...
