Fetish Con Announces Collab With George Pérez for 2022 Show

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Fetish Con has announced a collaboration with comic book icon George Pérez to create a new permanent space within Fetish Con for the George Pérez Superheroines Universe starting with its 20th anniversary show in 2022.  It was recently announced that due to the ongoing COVID pandemic, the 20th Anniversary Fetish Con trade show and events would now be happening August 11 through August 14, 2022.  The George Pérez Superheroines Universe will be a dedicated space with exhibitor/vendor booth space, classroom space, and event space. As soon as attendees walk through the door, they’ll be immersed in the George Pérez Superheroines Universe, with all attendees with Day Passes and All Access Passes able to take part in classes and events. “Superheroines have long been a bedrock staple within the comic book industry," event promoter Genesis Lynn says. "Every fan, whether male or female, has at some point looked to these flashily clad, powerful women as either role models or inspirations for personal flights of fantasy. As a major player within the comics industry for well over four decades, George Pérez has long championed and portrayed through his stories and artwork the strength, resilience, and beauty of women, whether portrayed as dominant or dominated. His long-standing and continued support of Fetish Con and the fans, coordinators, models, and performers is testament to that. "We will be celebrating his vision and bringing it to the forefront by creating a one-of-a-kind event space all housed under the George Pérez Superheroines Universe.” Like the icon himself, the George Pérez Superheroines Universe will celebrate the role of strong women in the Superheroines that George has brought to life and continues to share with the world. The classes and special events will run all three days of Fetish Con. The George Pérez Superheroines Universe will include a keynote interview with Pérez, Superheroine categories added to the 5th Annual Fetish Awards Show, multiple Superheroine themed classes, events, a dedicated exhibit/vendor space, and art display. In addition, there will be a Superheroine booth, and George Pérez himself will be in attendance to allow fans and attendees multiple chances to meet, greet, and get his coveted autograph! “For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been enthralled by the fanciful adventures of powerful women in flashy, gaudy costumes who can dish it out like their male counterparts but can be just as enticing when they are on the receiving end of the punishment," Perez says. "As I got older, I was able to indulge in many such flights of fantasy through my comic book work. And in later years, with avenues like Fetish Con and my own adult-themed superheroine video work for companies like DTWrestling.com, I’ve managed to further that indulgence. I have met many powerful women, as well as men, who have shared their similar fantasies, and I am proud to support and embrace them through this flattering new addition to Fetish Con."
