Toronto Comicon 2019 March 15 to 17

Aside from getting out of the snowy weather (seriously, can't wait to be done with the shoveling), the coming of spring rings in Comicon in Toronto, and we couldn't be more excited for this year's lineup!

This convention is always a fun-filled experience for fans to come together, celebrate, and share their favorite films, books, comics, and characters—and to have the opportunity to find a new series to fall in love with!

Some big name stars are in attendance including 90s star Jaleel White (Family Matters and Sonic the Hedgehog), John Rhys-Davies (our favorite Lord of the Rings dwarf Gimli), actor Ron Pearlman (Hellboy), and our two favorite Star Trek TNG Qs!

In addition, two Canadian rising authors in the Sci-Fi genre will be making an appearance, giving autographs, book signings, and doing photo-ops with fans: Amanda Rose (the Fire Fury saga) and Andrew Fantasia (SideScroller).

Amanda Rose

Author, actor, entrepreneur, serial novelist, and motivational speaker, Amanda Rose brings in-depth characters to life, and takes world-building to new levels.

Her featured sci-fi series at the 2019 Toronto Comicon, the Fire Fury saga's first two installments, Fire Fury Freedom and Fire Fury Frontier, incorporate her love for RPG gaming and expansive science fiction worlds.

“A veritable saga of a dystopian novel by an author with a genuine flair for detailed originality, and narrative driven storytelling, Fire Fury Freedom by Amanda Rose is an extraordinary and truly memorable read from cover to cover.” —Midwest Book Review

This is an action-adventure dystopian sci-fi with a splash of fantasy! As Mack, leader of a small mercenary group and ex-soldier from the C.D.F.P. military, sets out on a quest to try and save the dying planet. This group of mercenaries have to dodge the elements, all while trying to escape being hunted by the C.D.F.P. It's a race for survival!

"It's Mass Effect meets Star Wars in this harrowing space opera!" —Beta Reader

Over 200 years after the events in Fire Fury Freedom, humanity has taken to space as its one last chance for survival. On a solitary massive ship called the Saisei, the last lifeboat for humanity teeters on a knife's edge. Rations and supplies are low, and in the vast expanse of space finding supplies puts them to the test. Among the stars, humanity is about to discover they are not alone in the universe.

Andrew Fantasia

Actor, author, and podcast star of Rebel Scum, Andrew Fantasia is an intrinsic storyteller.

His debut novel, SideScroller, is akin to a brilliant 90s RPG and will resonate with gamers and action adventure sci-fi lovers, alike!

Break Up. Make Up. Level Up.

Welcome to Coinopolis, where everything runs on video game logic and everyone wears their heart on their sleeve. Spryte and Pixel are a happy young couple with their whole lives ahead of them... until, quite suddenly, they're not.

When one of them is put in mortal peril, the other assembles a last-minute rescue team that includes a cowardly bodyguard, a washed up parapsychologist, and a mysterious millionaire.

Together, they'll have to leave the safety of Coinopolis and venture out into the Wilds, a place where monsters run rampant and even a sunset could be fatal.

Oh, and did we mention the robots? Because yeah, there are robots.
