DKN recaps Fanboy Expo in Knoxville,TN

Hi guys! Writer Adam Prince here to bring you more or less a Community Spotlight on cosplayers from Fanboy Expo in Knoxville,TN June 5th-7th. I was there as “Nashville’s Dark Knight” while covering the event. I was going to interview artist Neal Adams, but sadly, the second day of the con, I lost my voice. Adam West and Burt Ward from the classic ’66 Batman television series were supposed to be guests of honor, but Adam West cancelled, leaving Ward alone. Fanboy had many guests, but nothing really DC Comics-related. However, next year, I hear they are going to make it up to the DC Comic fans.


This was my second year covering the con. It’s always a blast to come back. Got to see a lot of new venders.  Even got to do a 3D scan of myself to make a figure while I was wearing one of my Batman suits thanks to the company Make Me 3D. The only complaints I kept hearing was how bad Burt Ward was treating his fans, but that was not the staff members’ fault. Thank you, Fanboy Expo staff for another awesome year. Can’t wait to come back and see what you have up your sleeves for next year.

I'm a BIG Batman fan. Back in the day I would write scripts and get my friends together to make Batman movies. From real Batman suits to a wide collection of Batman stuff from over the years I have never have grown up when it comes to Batman. I go to Comic cons and dress up in full Batman (Nashville's Dark Knight) gear and hang out with fellow comic fans and take pictures. Hanging out with friends is always a blasty blast when they can find the time or when I can. I'm a big movie buff or at least a little buff lol. I love the extreme activities. White water rafting, playing paintball, just about anything I can get into. I have been in a few different kinds of Martial arts. Sometimes I go hunting on the family farm but its rare. When I lived in Bell Buckle I was on the BBVFD for about 5 years --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
