It's time to make our way to Chicago for one of our favorite comic conventions

We came. We saw. we ate too much pizza.

We also streamed panels, moderated panels, interviewed A-List celebrities, wrote up the biggest news, photographed some amazing cosplayers, and more in the three-day event that is Chicago's C2E2 2023.

Founded in 2010 with roughly 20,000-30,000 attendees, the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo has grown to one of the biggest comics conventions in the United States, boasting attendance numbers of 90,000 guests pre-pandemic.

Popverse's Chris Arrant, Veronica Valencia, Illianna Gonzalez-Soto, Grant DeArmitt, Vito DeArmitt, and Joshua Bertone were there for all the big news, the big panels, and the big fun to be had in North America's largest convention center, McCormick Place.

Watch C2E2 2023 panels with Popverse's video-on-demand

As with New York Comic Con, C2E2, and ECCC in 2022 (and ECCC in 2023!), Popverse filmed (and in some cases livestreamed) panels from the biggest stages of C2E2 2023.

You can watch these panel recordings of these panels by becoming a Popverse member at the 'Fan' level (or higher) or buying a C2E2 2023 digital ticket. The C2E2 digital ticket gives you access to all the panels filmed at C2E2 2023, as well as access to all the great members-only content on Popverse for 30 days. The annual Popverse membership includes live video panels from upcoming shows such as MCM London Comic Con and the epic New York Comic Con.
