BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - October 25, 2022 - Baltimore Comic-Con is excited for the return of The Kids Love Comics Pavilion, sponsored by Scholastic/Graphix and offering a variety of family-friendly activities and how-to’s for kids of all ages October 28-30, 2022.

Tickets for admission and VIP experiences are online now.

Hosted by comics creators and brothers Mark and Chris Mariano, the KLC Pavilion will have teachers throughout the weekend like Jimmy Gownley (7 Good Reasons Not to Grow Up), Kata Kane (Ana and the Cosmic Race), Emilio Velez Jr. (Dodgeball Teens), Dawn Griffin(Zorphbert & Fred), Darren Soto (Art Way Alliance), Nick Davis (Night Guardians), and many more. Kids Love Comics offers an area within the show floor where kids and their parents can take a break from the hustle and bustle of the comic booths. Music and crafts meet drawing and writing to form a fun weekend experience for the future comics fans and creators of tomorrow.

Host Chris Mariano, whose “Chris O-Matic Show” is an Internet cult favorite, introduces each of the art and craft programs in a style reminiscent of Pee Wee Herman or a TV puppet show. The result is an entertaining and sometimes surreal event that kids and families come back to again and again.

Besides the fun classes and crafts, the Kids Love Comics Pavilion hosts an all-star team of kids comics creators, offering fun and fabulous graphic novels that kids will love. Young readers have a new hero to aspire to be in Leon the Extraordinary, the recently debuted graphic novel by Jamar Nicholas. Kids are ready to devour the newest book from John Gallagher, Max Meow: Taco Time Machine. More taco-themed fun can be found in Punk Taco by the father & son team, Adam and Makana Wallenta. There are plenty of laughs to be had in Mark Mariano’s new zany book, Loud Cow. Enjoy the Halloween season by reading Franco’s Deadman Tells the Spooky Tales.
