About 1,100 guests attended the first Kauai comic convention coordinated by Aaron and Natsumi Yamasato.
Fans of comic books, gaming, and technology were treated to aisles of displays, demonstrations, and seminars featuring comic greats such as Ban Daisuke, known as Kikaida, Sifu Mimi Chan, a model for Disney’s Mulan, Carl Potts, the Marvel DC Comic creator, Night Darling, a Hawaii cosplay princess, and artists Hiroshi Hanatani and Derick Fabian.
