March 2020 was the start of a dreadful time for everyone. WonderCon was one of the first major conventions to be affected by lockdown. For the past two years, they kept things moving with virtual conventions with hopes of coming back to normal soon. Following the successful Comic-Con Special Edition in November, longtime WonderCon fans were a bit more optimistic about the convention’s inevitable return.

Even though things aren’t back to where they once were, WonderCon 2022, which took place this past weekend, opened its doors to a bevy of pop culture fans from all over for a slice of normalcy. Whether it was Transformers or Spider-Man, there was something for everyone on the show floor and in the panel rooms. Cosplayers of all backgrounds showed off their attire throughout the area with the fountain being the backdrop for a slew of photoshoots..

While WonderCon carried on, some people unfortunately didn’t get to see it happen. COVID took a tragic toll on a plethora of individuals. Many people, however, still attended the convention in remembrance of friends and family members.

Our photos from the three-day convention can be seen below. The 2023 installment of WonderCon will return to the Anaheim Convention Center from March 24 to March 26.
