Science Fiction and Fantasy gurus Andrea Johnson and John Wenger

If you think most science fiction and fantasy conventions are about outfits with pointed ears and garish costumes, think again. WMUK’s resident science fiction fans John Wenger and Andrea Johnson say those who attend most conventions take their fun more seriously. 

Johnson and Wenger say conventions are a time to meet your favorite authors and discuss their work with other fans. If you're interested in going to a convention, check out Penguicon 2012 this weekend near Detroit.
