Pasadena Comic Con the Small Con But the Crowds Make it Fun!


Pasadena Comic Con is the premiere comic convention in Pasadena, California, much smaller in comparison to the San Diego Comic Con, but it is still a con nonetheless. This year for the recent newly New Year that is 2024, they would bring in the acts unlike any other, lots of names within the comic scene such as Johnny Yong Bosch known to many as the Black Ranger for the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, when he came in for the later seasons, as well as voicing a character from the anime Bleach. Other guests like Derek Riggs the artist behind a lot of the Iron Maiden artwork, another Mighty Morphin Power Ranger Austin St. John the red ranger, as well as the original black ranger Walter Jones was there. Butch Hartman a famous animator was there, as well as Tom Kenny the voice behind Spongebob Squarepants was present, as well as many other guests.

Upon arriving around 11AM, browsing the floors for a couple of hours, meeting various guests like James Duval from 2001’s Donnie Darko, he played Frank the giant bunny rabbit. As well as getting to meet the creator of Monster High Garrett Sander, along with some other Monster High voice actor cast being alongside too. It was a fun and exciting experience to witness meeting these guests, and seeing some people dressed up in costumes too. Some characters spotted included a lot of Star Wars characters, Power Rangers, super heroes, and others roaming the halls checking out the various booths and merchandise spread about.






The hallways outside the main halls, were filled with booths, with more guests and merchandise, along with more people dressed up. Outside the convention hall was the ice cream truck from Twisted Metal the video game! This comic con whilst small did draw in a crowd, it did not sell out, but did pack it in, with it being crowded but not overly swarmed with too many people.

In the end it is another comic con to add to your list of conventions to indeed check out at least once. Having been this being my second time in attendance, I had a splendid time, roaming around, meeting guests, buying goodies, and having a fun time overall. Likely will go back again in the next if not following years, because Pasadena knows how to throw on some good but fun events all year!
