This May is going to be one of my busiest convention months ever, because three cons which usually occur in different months will instead take place this year on three consecutive weekends. First will come Stokercon in Grand Rapids (and I’ve already told you what I’ll be doing there), then the Nebula awards weekend in Los Angeles, and finally, Balticon 53 over the Memorial Day weekend.

The final Balticon schedule has just been posted, so if you’re in the mood to track me down and listen to my ramblings, here’s where you’ll be able to find me—

Captain Marvel and the Retconning of the MCU
Saturday, May 25, 2:00 p.m.
The story of Captain Marvel is set a decade before other films in the main MCU sequence, adding to and sometimes changing backstory of characters, organizations, and setting elements we thought we already knew. Did they get it right or wrong? What might have been done differently? Is there a chance that future MCU movies will also be set in the past?
