Then please join me, Glenn Parris, Violette Meier, and Robert Jeffrey II for our presentation of our panel, “Same Shield, But With a Twist: Sam Wilson as Our New Captain America,” at noon in Panel Room 1. The Atlanta Sci-Fi and Fantasy Expo is a totally free event held at Northlake Mall in the Briarcliff Atlanta/Tucker, GA area.

Panel description: Author Kyoko M., a USA Today bestselling writer known for her urban fantasy series The Black Parade and the science fiction series Of Cinder and Bone, will lead a discussion on the background, comics, and Marvel Cinematic Universe adaptation of Sam Wilson’s journey to becoming Captain America. The panel will explore Sam’s significance in America today and his profound impact on the comic book world. The conversation will address the good, the bad, and the challenges of how fandom has responded to his transition from The Falcon to the new Captain America. Additionally, the discussion will touch on the latest movie and the anthology Captain America: The Shield of Sam Wilson, to which Kyoko M. and Glenn Parris are contributing authors. There will be a short Q & A at the end of the panel, so please bring along your questions!
