Expo is in T-minus three days. We’re ready(ish.) Are you?
We, the staff here at The Escapist, have been working hard for these past several months to put together Expo 2013. We’ve got our HvZ bandanas, our nerf guns and swords, and, of course, our panel schedule! Check us out at Expo 2013 this weekend, October 4, 5, and 6, right here in Durham, North Carolina. Can’t make it? Keep an eye out for our Expo live stream, where you can check out the headlining panels all weekend long!
