FANEXPO notes

Officially feeling not nerdy enough for fanexpo. It was an excellent way to spend a Sunday but I appreciated my time in an observational, rather than interactive role. The hoards of people grappling for posters, action figures, rare comics, and new trinkets made moving across the exhibitor floor like a slow march through the trenches of a traffic simulator.

The lunch crowd
The entrance
The transit
