Lore Con 2026 has its second confirmed special guest:

Fantastic Frankey. Nerd commentator. Fanboy Fighter. She built her platform from the ground up and fostered a community dedicated to making sure every type of nerd feels protected, welcomed, and seen.

Frankey has spent years doing one thing consistently: making sure the Black female voice takes up space in a room that wasn't always built for her. Comics. Anime. Sci-fi. Fantasy. She covers it all and she doesn't do it quietly.

Now she's coming to Durham.
September 26-27. Durham Convention Center. This is just the beginning.
Founding tickets are live now.
