The first day of FanX 2024 Salt Lake Comic and Pop Culture Convention has come and gone, but the memories will last a lifetime.
The first thing I notice at any comic convention is the cosplay, and, at Fan X, it seems like it is harder to find someone not dressed up than people who dress up.
Here are some of our favorite cosplays we spotted on the convention floor this year!
We met a group of friends cosplaying as characters from The Lord of the Rings. They were celebrating the 40th birthday of their friend (dressed as Legolas). The cosplayer dressed as Gandalf traveled all the way from Oslo to be there.
Another The Lord of the Ring‘s cosplay we must mention is the family that dressed up together and made sure to include the terrifying Eye of Sauron.
Local comic book creators, and all-around geek extraordinaire, Andrew Malin and Nataly Soto as character from Disney’s Duck Tales! Malin had the “duck voice” down pat.
Because it makes for the perfect segue, here is a cosplayer dressed as a character from the video game Baldur’s Gate 3, Isobel, a cleric of the goddess Selene.
Members the voice cast of the hit role-playing video game, set in the universe Dungeons and Dragons, wowed fans at their packed panel and signed autographs on the convention floor.
There was so much more to see and do, including some beautiful wares for sale and some impeccable and imaginative booth design on the vendor floor, as well as musical performances on the main stage and a pirate sheep complete with a mermaid!
See you on day two at FanX 2024!
