The three days when all your comic fantasies can come true
When you can truely "Become anybody"
When all true boundaries set by physics and math can be defied ( but within its hypothetical boundary ofcourse )
One can morp into all their childhood super hero fantasies and save the world on their own terms.
It isn't all about the the hero's either
Embracing the fact that you love comic book villians
That's another aspect of this convention
No shame in craving to be evil
Its not something anyone can pull off that easily
Super hero's wear masks
Super villans don't
They are their truest face, out in the open.
Enough of Cosplay
Let me talk more about what it really is all about
To the ones that tell their girlfriends in the parking lot, I quote " It's just like Disneyland but there's Batman and Superman instead of Micky Mouse"
All I could do is just give that guy a cold stare.
It is a convention for all comic book geeks/non geeks and otaku's alike
A place of solace for the ones who wish every day of their life was a new page on the comic book and not yet another charade of monotony and melancholy.
This is a realm of all virtuality coming to life. Its the dimensions we always wish we can escape into. Dreams do not satiate us, but these con's can.
It isn't a mandate to show up in a costume. Ones without much time on their hands can have their fair share of reality rift too. Drop by, pop a few selfies, grab a poster or two, pimp up their wardrobe with the shirts n hoodies, grab a few limited edition collectables and walk home content.
So next time u walk into a con and confuse it to be Disneyland make sure u walk in as Mickey mouse.
-sincerely yours
