ArchRivals Collector Fest

Now that ArchRivals Collector Fest is in the books, I have a question for everyone who attended:

What brought you to the show?

Was it:
📚 Comics
🎴 Pokémon Cards
⚾ Sports Cards
🧸 Toys
✍️ Autographs
🎨 Artists & Creators
👻 Cosplay Groups
🎙️ Guests
💎 MAS Authentication
🛒 Vendors

Or something else?

As we begin planning our November 14, 2026 event, I'd love to hear what you enjoyed most and what you'd like to see more of in the future.

Drop your answer in the comments!

💙 Happy Father's Day! 💙

Today we celebrate the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, adoptive fathers, father figures, and mentors who have helped shape our lives.

Thank you for the sacrifices you've made, the lessons you've taught, the support you've provided, and the love you've shared throughout the years.

Whether you're spending the day with family, remembering a father who is no longer with us, or reflecting on the impact a father figure has had on your life, today is a day to recognize the important role fathers play in our communities and families.

To all the dads out there who work hard, lead by example, offer guidance, and continue showing up for the people who depend on them—today is for you.

Wishing all fathers a day filled with love, appreciation, and time with the people who matter most.

Happy Father's Day!

❤️ THANK YOU, ST. LOUIS! ❤️

As ArchRivals Collector Fest comes to a close, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who made today's event possible.

Thank you to every attendee who walked through our doors, supported our vendors, met our guests, participated in our activities, and helped make the day a success.

Thank you to our incredible vendors, artists, exhibitors, and community organizations who filled the room with comics, collectibles, artwork, Pokémon, video games, toys, cosplay, and so much more.

A special thank you to our featured guests:

🎙️ John Gremillion

🎨 Alex Sinclair

✏️ Baldemar Rivas

Thank you for taking the time to meet fans, sign autographs, share stories, and help create memories that attendees will remember for years to come.

Thank you to MAS Authentication, The Squared Ring Podcast, Heroes 4 Kids, Hero Initiative, Piasa Ghostbusters, the 70th Explorers Garrison of the 501st Legion, Hannibal Heroes Unlimited, Arch City Heroes, and all of the organizations that joined us today.

Events like this don't happen because of one person. They happen because a community of collectors, fans, creators, vendors, volunteers, and supporters come together to celebrate the hobbies and passions we all enjoy.

Today we saw old friends reconnect, new friendships form, collections grow, autographs signed, photos taken, and memories made.

That is what ArchRivals Collector Fest is all about.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for spending part of your day with us.

We hope you had a great time, found something special, and made memories that will last a lifetime.

Until next time...

Thank you for supporting ArchRivals Collector Fest.
