The Bronx Heroes ComicCon

The Bronx Heroes began as a comic anthology about heroes in the Bronx, which then morphed into an art show called "Dream Sequence" at Longwood at Gallery, and then re-emerged as a comic book series and finally as a Comic Convention at Hostos College.The Bronx Heroes con is an event which brings together the Bronx community and exposes them to one of America's oldest art forms in commercial art. Bronx Residents get the opportunity to meet and greet with comic professionals who reside in the Bronx and other parts of the New York and Tri-state area. It's an event which is offered free to attend and where aspiring young artists and writers can discuss and listen to professionals in the comic book field and gain encouragement and make connections towards a career in the comic book art field.
