review:
'The Long Con' by Dylan Meconis and Ben Coleman with art by EA Denich is a graphic novel about the apocalypse, and a convention that is still running.

The world may have ended, but not for the folks in the Los Spinoza Convention Center. They still wander the halls and food courts of pop culture. Enter Victor Lai, a reporter who breaks in and finds his friend Dez Delaney. They travel the halls of geekdom gone long.

It's an ok premise. I think I would have liked more apocalypse and less con. There is a lot of nerd humor, although the properties that are mocked are hidden to avoid scrutiny by studio lawyers. The art was not my style and felt a bit loose.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Oni Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
