In this special Eddie Wilson solo episode of The Marvelists, host Eddie Wilson sits down for an in-depth, one-on-one interview with Eric, the General Manager of Garden State Comic Fest!

Eddie and Eric dive into the behind-the-scenes world of running one of New Jersey's favorite comic and pop culture conventions, sharing stories about building the show's intimate, old-school vibe, the evolution of the fest, and what makes GSCF a must-attend event for collectors, cosplayers, families, and Marvel fans alike.

Of course, the conversation turns to the upcoming Garden State Comic Fest Winter Edition - happening January 24-25, 2026, at the Sussex County Fairgrounds in Augusta, NJ!
