Fan2Sea: Comic Con Goodness on the High Seas

August 31, 2016

No longer do you have to just dream of setting sail on the seas of high adventure. Now you can do the real thing.

Coming in January 2017, with the Fan2Sea Cruise you can take the ultimate comic book and pop culture vacation aboard Royal Caribbean International’s Brilliance of the Seas cruise ship.

It’s like attending a comic con on the high sea.

This four-night trip lasts from Jan. 19 to 23 and starts in Tampa, Florida, then has stops in Key West and the island of Cozumel, Mexico. Onboard meals will be provided as well as access to cosplay contests, gaming tournaments, panels, screenings, parties and more, though special meet-and-greets with some celebrities will include an extra charge.

Speaking of celebrities, there are plenty of them coming to Fan2Sea. You’re familiar with Michael Rooker of “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “The Walking Dead,” right? Then there are Sonequa Martin-Green who portrays Sasha Williams on “The Walking Dead,” as well as Seth Gilliam, known as Father Gabriel Stokes on the same television show. Other actors from “The Walking Dead” will attend but also to appear are Caleb McLaughlin, Catherine Dyer, and Randy Havens from Netflix’s “Stranger Things.”

If you lean more towards comics, there will be plenty of celebrity representatives from that field, such as Jordan D. White, currently the editor for Marvel Comics’ Star Wars and Deadpool titles.

Also appearing are artist Klaus Janson (The Dark Knight Returns, Batman: Gothic, etc.), writer Mark Waid (Kingdom Come, Superman: Birthright, etc.), as well as many others working in comics.

Fans of nerd culture will find more than a few recognizable names worth visiting at Fan2Sea. Music fans might want to check out The Flux Capacitors, known as “The Back to the Future band,” and cosplay aficionados shouldn’t miss such performers as Lefty Lucy and Stella Chu, as well as others.

And this is just touching upon all those who will be available to meet at Fan2Sea. For a complete and up-to-date rundown, check out the full Fan2Sea line-up.

How much does all this nerdy awesomeness going to cost? It depends upon how many people in your party are going, where your cabins are located aboard the ship, and the type of cabins you book. Check out the rates here, and don’t forget you can get a 10 percent discount by using the promo code word “Nerdarchy.” (Full disclosure: When you use the promo code, Nerdarchy earns a commission which could allow Nerdarchy members to attend Fan2Sea.) For those who are interested, there is even a payment plan. Nerdarchy is now running a contest giving away one cabin for you and up to 3 of your friends. More Info- Here

So, pack up your favorite costumes, get your autograph books ready, and prepare to set sail on the seas of high adventure with Fan2Sea. And if you spot a Nerdarchist on board, don’t forget to introduce yourself and to tell them to “Stay Nerdy!”
