Legion M Ambassador Program
Ramona will head up our new Ambassador Program, an endeavor to broaden our participation at Comic Cons across the country. Over the years we have met so many amazing and talented people who are advocates for fandom, film, and Legion M — a testament to the true power of a fan-owned company.
