Nerdist and Geek & Sundry remain two of the biggest players in the online digital content landscape and it just wouldn’t be a comic con without them in attendance. And so, parent company Legendary Digital Networks have unveiled the plans both platforms have for this weekends WonderCon Anaheim (Anaheim Convention Center, Friday 29th -Sunday 31st March 2019).
Panels and live presentations of a number of the shows that Nerdist and G&S put on will be represented, including NERDIST NEWS with Jessica Chobot, RELICS & RARITIES featuring MARVEL’S DAREDEVIL‘s Deborah Ann Woll, and their latest hit show, VAMPIRE: THE MASQUERADE, which will present their first ever live episode presentation, right there on that there stage.
If you’re heading to California this weekend, and you’re a fan of the streamings, these panels will be for you – they’re all on the Saturday so make sure you block out the day. Expect some winded question about how they could let CRITICAL ROLE slip from between their fingers somewhere along the line in the Q&A’s…
