Phoenix Comicon was happening last week and I had a chance to go to the full event and had a blast! This year was better than any other because I was able to go with my girlfriend and we dressed as s couple cosplay as Lara Croft and Nathan Drake. My friend Killian also went and of course he dressed as Negan.
This Con was different because I got to relax more. Going as a cosplay was a lot of fun since last time I went as developer for a game I helped developed called Crimson Nights and had to work a booth.
Basically the first day was just scouting out the place trying to see what I could buy and get. I have to say I was surprised when we got the chance to get in the exhibitor hall early just by connections. This was perfect because I was able to get first dibs on some items. Although there was an item I saw that I told myself I would buy it the second day and when I returned it was gone.
Cortana and I'm probably going to go as a ODST solider.
While at the Con I saw that somebody was doing Charactures and I have always wanted to get one so Madison and I got one both in character which I thought was funny. This was one of the highlights of being at the con and the artist was really nice and funny and knew who we were which there was a few times we were mistaken
Also I think my girlfriend has a groot addiction the whole time at the Con it was hey look at the baby groot its so cute and I want a million of them so I ended up buying her a baby groot tee shirt and one of the giant plushes of baby groot. Its like she has a tree collection.
Then the coolest thing happened I so recently I have been reading an independent comic company called Valiant comics and I have to say how awesome they are the character the writing its all just epic as hell. So I didn't know that they would be at comicon so when I saw their booth I lost my mind and was fanboying all over the place and asked them for signatures and I even got to meet the CEO of the company personally walked me over to David Baron the Artist for Bloodshot and many other titles including his own called stained which I had him sign the first edition of the
