*This is my second post regarding Convergence and my experience*

My three-part series about Convergence is halfway over. If you haven’t had a chance to read my recap of the convention, you can find that post here: Convergence Post Part #1 This post will talk about what I purchased at Convergence aka my haul.

One of the best and worst things about conventions is all of the amazing merchandise to buy! It’s great because I love adding to my geek collection, but it’s really bad for my wallet. I wanted to share pictures of what I purchased from the Con.

Hades/Inside Out Print by James Powell

Artist Alley is one of my favorite places to visit at Convergence. I actually got this above print for free because I follow James Powell on Instagram. When I saw his booth at Artist Alley, I knew I had to have this print. I told him that I commented on Instagram and he remembered me. He gave me this print free of charge. I was so astonished by how cool of a guy James Powell is.

Linus Walking Dead Print by James Powell

This was the last print I bought from James Powell. After giving me the Inside Out/Hercules art print for free, I knew I had to buy more of his art. I love the Peanuts with a passion and even though I’m not the biggest Walking Dead fan, I really loved the mash-up. Plus my boyfriend loves this show, so it will fit right in when I hang it in our room.

Fairy Tale Mash Up Books by Camille Griep

My uncle and aunt also go to Convergence and they were having a drink with a woman they met at the hotel bar. Her name was Camille and she is an author from Seattle. This was her very first Convergence and she was trying to promote her books. I had mentioned that I blog for Twin Cities Geek and I would love to promote her work. So she handed me two of her books for free to review! I’m looking forward to reading them because they appear to be fairy tale themed. The cover of this book reminds me of the first season of Once Upon a Time which I loved. I can’t wait to officially read them.

Jade Street Protection Services Book #1 by Katy Rex

Katy Rex had a booth at Convergence. She’s super nice and let me look at her book. I purchased it for $4 and I think I will really like it. It reminds me of Babs Tarr’s work with the new Batgirl. Katy described her book as Sailor Scouts who go off to Hogwarts and get caught smoking in the bathroom. I like the punk element of this book.

This wraps up my haul post and I have a lot of reading to do.
