WonderCon 2018: Saturday Sold Out, Schedule Up

WonderCon 2018 is now two weeks away , it's taking place March 23-25th at the recently renovated Anaheim Convention  and it already sold out Saturday. You can still get the pricier 3-day badge or Friday or Sunday only, but they can sell out too.

The schedule is up for you to choose what line you're going to stand in.

In an extremely bad movie in timing, Batman Ninja will have its world premiere at 10:15 AM on Saturday during the con. Will the attendees even be awake? Damn, WB Animation must have been beat down for having to show that early at the con.
