One of Thunder Bay’s first geek culture celebrations is taking place this weekend at the Fort William Historical Park.
Fancon starts Friday and runs until Sunday with sci-fi celebrities and Marvel characters patrolling the grounds.
Spokesperson Marty Mascarin says geek chic was a natural fit for their facility.
Mascarin points to their new observatory as a tie in to sci-fi and the fantasy world.
Walter Koenig who played Pavel Chekov in Star Trek and Daphne Ashbrook from Doctor Who are highlights of the con.
