The last time comic fans gathered at the Phoenix Convention Center for Phoenix Fan Fusion was 2019. Since then, the COVID-19 Pandemic derailed plans for further conventions, until now.
With temperatures in the 100s on May 27, some attendees of the fiction entertainment and comic book convention were distressed by the heat.
"While everyone was waiting outside, a few people threw up just from being in the sun and the heat and dehydration," said one attendee. For those in a full bodysuit or a helmet for their costume, the heat was even more noticeable. Those who got to the event site early say they waited two-and-a-half hours
"For anyone who's got a full body costume with muscles and people with helmets on, it was kind of rough," said another attendee. "I wish it was an easier transition or a way to get in."Despite the heat, it was all smiles for at least some of the attendees when they got inside the Phoenix Convention Center. Fans were eager, especially after waiting three years to get back and show off their best interpretations of their favorite characters.
Inside the convention center, booths were filled with stuffed animals, artwork, and toys. Attendees stopped and took photos together, and shared their favorite stories about their favorite characters.
