“AfterShock Comics is officially heading back out on the convention circuit and we couldn’t be more thrilled to participate in the Rose City Comic Con later this week,” said AfterShock’s editor-in-chief Mike Marts. “After a trying year and a half with limited real-world fan contact, we look forward to seeing all of our AfterShock family in person once again for what will surely be a memorable three days in Portland.”
