We all have those franchises that we are way too invested in. Whether you’re into galaxies far, far away, fantasy video games, or the latest comic books, franchises help you escape the day-to-day stresses and experience something truly exceptional. One of the best parts of being part of a geekdom in 2018 is that there are more and more ways to help you celebrate the things you love. One of the most fun ways to celebrate your geeky side is by attending events or cons, so lucky for you here are six upcoming metro Detroit events where you can let your geek flag fly.
