The Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo hit the Windy City again this past weekend, and ASM once again had a great time! This is the fifth annual C2E2 show, and we’re proud to have been at every one of them. When the show first started in 2010, it was a much smaller affair, one that we easily could see in a day.

We have costumes, we are members of the 501st Legion and Rebel Legion, and we have made many great friends through those organizations. So, now Anovos is going to make high-end Star

The Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo hit the Windy City again this past weekend, and ASM once again had a great time! We love costuming here at ASM, but unfortunately we didn’t get to see as many costumes as we would have liked, since we were only at the show on Saturday.
