Location: Marx Halle
This year Vienna Comix went back to an old location, the massive Marx Halle! Ulrich Schröder and Kari Korhonen were also there! Henrieke has a foot injury which made things a little more complicated, but we managed!
My dad was nice enough to give Henrieke and me a ride to Marx Halle. We also picked up Atura on the way. I dropped my fursuit off at the big dedicated fursuit lounge and helped Henrieke set up.
Kari Korhonen was sitting at the table next to Henrieke. He was signing books mostly, but due to a mistake ordering them there weren't nearly enough books for everyone.
There were lots of fursuiters as always. This location provided a lot more space than the previous one, which made suiting a bit easier! At 15:00 there was a big group photo outside.
After the day concluded, there was a dinner organized for people who work at Comix and the artist guests. We took a taxi there and sat together with Kari. I left soon after to pick up the car and bring Henrieke home.
On Sunday the event started at 10:00, today I took the the car and parked in a rather expensive garage. Ulrich took an overnight train to Vienna from Switzerland and was now also sitting between Kari and Henrieke.
I suited a bit later for the big cosplay group photo. It's funny that some people (at least partially) came to see fursuiters! This event is very inviting for furries too, providing us a proper lounge and even a shower! Of course also big thanks to Godracos, who takes care of a lot of organizing!
AFter the event was over, Godracos, Ulrich, Henrieke and I drove to Mari's Metcha Market, an excellent Japanese restaurant and had a nice dinner. We then went to get some also excellent ice cream at Bortolotti and on the way saw a double rainbow! An ideal end of the day.
It's been a great Comix again! I much prefer it over the ultra-commercialized events like Vienna Comic Con and am looking forward to next year!
