If it seems like most of southern California was at Stan Lee’s Comikaze over the weekend, it’s because they probably were. The popular convention celebrated its fourth year on October 31-November 2, with lots of cosplayers, celebrities, exciting exclusives and merchandise, and even an attempt to set the Guinness World Record for the Longest Link of Human Tetris.
Our own Shawn “The Con Fluence” Marshall was on site throughout the weekend, and we’ll be sharing a more in-depth look at just how Comikaze fared this year.
But first, let’s take a look at the highlights from the convention, courtesy of social media.
