A question-and-answer session will feature comic book artists:

Desjardins will also create a large sketch during the event.

There will be special contest prizes for those who show up wearing a T-shirt featuring their favourite superhero, and UWindsor students and employees are eligible for a 20 percent discount on admission to the Windsor ComiCon at Caesars Windsor, October 15 and 16.
