meteordustI always say that Supanova is the one convention I go to every year, but perhaps I need to add SMASH! to that count too. Today I went to the third one in three years, and enjoyed it as thoroughly as the first.
SMASH! is small and intimate and fannish, with the additional nostalgia value of being at my old stomping grounds of UNSW. Much of the pleasure is in catching up with friends, or watching people go by, dressed up and enthusiastic and having a good time.
I picked up Adventures of an OG Addict (an FFXI anthology) by Libbie, The Credit of Time by Poshua, and the new Dylan Bradley: The Dark War by FIGHT!! Comics.
Highlights of the cosplay contest included a giant plush Mokona,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kawak's Utena group, and a Sailor Moon who was six feet of blond awesomeness.
We finished the day with dinner at GPK. What more could you ask for?
