Nerdlocker’s tagline has always been “A Place for Your Inner Nerd.” It used to be that there weren’t many places for the inner nerd. It used to be that “nerd” was an insulting word. But now, nerd culture – whether it is comics, sci-fi, fantasy, or anime – nerds can fly their freak flags high […]Read More
Seeing kids in awe of Stormtroopers and Jedis, a mother – daughter Harley Quinn duo, buying David Bowie earrings and a bookmark of Han Solo as a cat, makes Family Day at Motor City Comic Con the best! First, I feel that the family day ticket prices are an incredible deal! Kids under four are […]Read More
Walking into Motor City Comic Con, one can be amazed by many things – a giant Thanos costume made out of balloons, Hawkgirl cosplay with functioning wings, Stephen Amell’s abs. But the most amazing aspect of Motor City Comic Con, and something I noticed more this year than any other, is that it is a […]Read More
Day three is family day! There were several amazing families in cosplay including my own, dressed as Squirrel Girl and Mister Sinister. Check out the pictures below. My day started with meeting Michael Rooker. While waiting in line, I witnessed a three-year-old girl instruct Rooker how to kill a zombie. See the video on our […]Read More
Day two started with waiting in line to meet the remarkable Billie Piper of Doctor Who, Penny Dreadful, and Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Only a few minutes late for autographs, I see Miss Piper walking towards us. She looks right at me and says, “I just need to use the toilet” in the sweetest British accent imaginable. […]Read More
Day one of Motor City Comic Con was, as usual, a blast. My favorite moment might have been when Michael Rooker passed me on the left and yelled, “I’m Mary Poppins y’all!” on his way to his booth. That might be the greatest line in all of Marvel movie history. But a close second were […]Read More
Family Day! I really enjoy family day. Not only because I get to enjoy the convention with my wife and kids, but because I get to see so many other families enjoying all the nerdy fanfare. This family day started with, as usual, a little shopping. Shopping for us means scoping out all the possibilities […]Read More
Nananananananananana Batman! Adam West and Burt Ward were certainly the headliners of this year’s Motor City Comic Con. The con was littered with Batmen and Harleys (even more than usual). Reys and Kylo Rens were also plentiful. The highlight of the con for me was the fist bump I got from Adam West on the way […]Read More
Motor City Comic Con 2015 – Day 3 By day three, I was exhausted. But I kept calm and carried on! I managed to fit in an interview in the morning with the Red Power Ranger, Jason Faunt. In the spirit of family day at Motor City Comic Con, my eleven-year-old son operated the […]Read More
Motor City Comic Con 2015 – Day 2 Day two of the Motor City Comic Convention was a mad house! Saturday is always the busiest day of the convention weekend and today may have been the busiest I had seen it since two years ago when Stan Lee was in attendance. The difference between […]Read More
Motor City Comic Con 2015 – Day 1 It’s my third year covering the Motor City Comic Con here in Michigan, and day one has been by far my most enjoyable yet. Those in charge of running the convention did an excellent job of listening to feedback from previous conventions. They provided more […]Read More

When people dress up for a comic convention they draw a lot of attention – especially the girls. So I took some time to talk to a few of the young ladies who donned costumes and asked them why they did it and overall what their experience was like. All of the young women said […]Read More
Check out this clip from the panel on Lost Girl with Paul Amos and Rachel Skarsten. These two were hilarious with their verbal sparring. In this clip, Paul has an embarrassing confession (well for a room full of nerds anyway) and then gives the quote of the weekend. For more info on comics, video games, movies […]Read More
It’s kids day! Kid’s day at Motor City Comic Con is always my favorite. There is nothing like the pure joy of kids who love science fiction, video games, and superheroes. My favorite little troop of munchkins was this Tiny Justice League. With both my kids in tow, dressed as Adventure Time characters, […]Read More
Day two in one word: busy. While nothing will compare to last year when Stan Lee was in attendance, there were definitely a lot of people in attendance on day two. Unlike last year, most people were not nearly as disgruntled. I heard people actually fought in the parking lot. But then I also heard […]Read More
Motor City Comic Con 2014 – Day 1 Day one at the Motor City Comic Convention was superb.
