Fantasia Comic Con has returned for its second year. The two-day event has brought together three facets of geek under one roof: Pop Culture, Entertainment, and Fandom. Taking place on May 12 & 13th at the Riverside County Fairgrounds, the event brought in a lot of cosplay as well. Check out some of our favorite cosplays from day one of Fantasia Comic Con.

Cosplay Gallery

Cosplay is a play on the words costume and roleplay! It’s when a person dresses up as a character from movies, television, or pop culture. It is similar to the idea of a Halloween costume but it’s something that happens all year long at conventions. Attendees at conventions dress in celebration of the characters they love. Many times drawing the attention of other con-goers and posing for photos.
