Reflection on Salt Lake Comic Con 2013

Comic Con proved to be an exciting experience. Initially, I was apprehensive about attending, after finding out that my fellow Globe staff members, who were also attending, possessed much more geek knowledge than I could ever dream of.

Much to my relief, Salt Lake Comic Con accommodates even the most casual of geeks with a variety of panels and fan service. Much like our college campuses, Comic Con attendees share diverse interests from popular video games to relatively obscure films like “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.”

Fans roamed the Salt Palace in intricate cosplay outfits. Walking shoulder to shoulder, the Salt Palace eventually filled to capacity according to a Comic Con volunteer. The lines for headliners stretched across the halls, which I opted to avoid in exchange for the less frantic lines of the less popular panels.

Selling out the final day, Salt Lake Comic Con was a major success. As a fan of all things geeky, I will definitely be attending again next year.
