If you attend any CMON event with designers/producers, they are more than happy to say hello and sign something.  However, this year, CMON is making it official.  Eric, Michael, Fel, and Fred will be available every day of Gen Con, so stop on by.  Personally, I met Fel for the first time at CMON Expo this year.  If you get […]

We are proud to announce to have reached with CMON an […]

All told, 112 tickets […]
