Comic Con as a n00b: My first trip to Utah's biggest convention

By Jordan Murray
January 01, 1970 12:00 AM
Superman steps off the train at the TRAX station, brushing off debris from his padded muscles. Hagrid crosses the intersection, adjusting his layers of heavy winter coats and re-attaching a long curly beard. The Powerpuff Girls quickly run up the sidewalk, selfie stick in hand, documenting their entire journey from the car to the Salt Palace. A few Jedi almost get run over as they try to cross the street to enter the convention.
