Supanova – Brisbane 2013<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It was great to be able to attend this years Brisbane Supanova<\/a> on Saturday after being unable to come last year. Every time I go the weather seems to get hotter and the crowds seem to get bigger. There was also lots of cosplayers of course and I admire their efforts to wear full body costumes in the November heat! It’s interesting to see the trends within the community, lots of Batmans (batmen?) and Gotham related characters, Attack on Titan uniforms with full vertical maneuvering equipment and  many more that made me realize I’m not up to date with some pop culture references *sigh*.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, here are my photos from the day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
