The Long Con

A darkly comedic series from Oni Press, The Long Con (2018–2019) follows a cynical pop culture journalist who, after a disastrous convention, stumbles into a conspiracy involving a doomsday cult hiding behind a fan convention. Over ten issues, writer Dylan Meconis and artist Emilee Denich craft a satirical thriller that skewers fandom culture, media manipulation, and the end of the world. With Denich’s expressive, cartoon-tinged artwork grounding the absurd premise, the series stands as a sharp, entertaining critique of how obsession can turn apocalyptic.
