SSFGFC Stockholm, April 2015

What would people do if Christmas came twice a year? Maybe they would get confused and forget how to celebrate. It feels like that's what happened when The Scandinavian Sci-Fi, Game & Film Convention, usually held in November or December, decided do to an extra con this weekend.

A lot of friends and familiar faces, but it didn't have the usual energy. Maybe cosplayers had their planning thrown and nothing to wear. Maybe families rather spend their days outside in sun now that spring is finally here.

Whatever the reason, I hope this won't stop the con coming back in the fall and that the fans will be there then to show their support for this unique celebration of all things nerdy and fun.

And here are pictures—

First look.

Judges.

If dad dresses like one of your troopers, treat him like one of your troopers.

The con can add "books" to their name.

SSFGFC Stockholm 2014

The Scandinavian Sci-Fi, Game & Film Convention. It used to be called "the Swedish ComicCon" and even though we had a show named ComicCon this year the SSFGCF still feels a lot more like what I think ComicCon should be than the other one managed.

I've been here every year for a lot of years now and even though it felt like attendence was down it had one of the best line-up of guests and exhibitors ever. I only missed the movie companies, but they didn't show up at ComicCon either so I don't know what they're thinking.

Anyway, here are a selection of my pictures from the show—

Comics Heaven was there.

Batman was there.

Nordic Garrison and Nordic Base were there.

And Dragon's Lair was there.
