Welcome back to the Grand Prix Atlanta countdown blog!
Yesterday, I introduced you to the fantastic artists who will be joining our Guest of Honor, Terese Nielsen, in our Artists Alley. From rk post to Pete Venters to Victor Adame Minguez, Grand Prix Atlanta will be filled with some of Magic’s most skilled artisans happy to sign cards for you all weekend long.
But artists aren’t the only special guests who will be attending Grand Prix Atlanta. We’ll also be joined by those who bring your favorite cards to life – cosplayers! And for Grand Prix Atlanta, we have two of the very best.
Christine Sprankle
Veteran cosplayer Christine Sprankle attended Worlds 2011 as Elspeth Tirel, her first Magic: The Gathering costume. The result was a breakout moment not only for her but for Magic cosplay in general. Since then she has been an official cosplayer at numerous Magic: The Gathering events, including the inaugural HASCON in September 2017. She enjoys bringing all of her favorite characters to life. Pictures and signings are free; please just ask!
