    Contents General Information.............2 Guests of Honor...................4 Cosplay Contest...................7 Dealers & Artists..................9 Full Schedule......................10 Panels & Events..................16 Video Rooms......................22 Special Thanks...................25 A Note from the Chair The journey to where we are is rarely what we expected. I’ve been with Anime Fusion since it was a conversation between three people in the wave pool at Valleyfair. We all had the destination in mind, but I doubt any of us could have envisioned the path that lay ahead. It was a road pitted with challenges: resource shortfalls, communication issues, staff changes, conflicting ideas and the sheer enormity of what we’d taken on. At its end we find ourselves in a place unlike what any of us imagined, but a place that is our own, a place we’re excited to share with you. This is Anime Fusion. A home for the best of what anime is today, but a place that also remembers its roots. Like the convention itself, anime has come a long way. In style, content, medium and structure, modern anime is very different from the classics, but without what came before, we wouldn’t be where we are now. The past gives us our foundation and the building blocks of what’s to come. Its high points leave us fond memories to treasure, and its rough spots teach us skills to improve. So go forth into our world. Embrace the new, but value the road that brought you here. Heather Bufkin Convention Chair Anime Fusion 2012 A Note from the Vice Chair Don’t break the hotel.

  • Green Arrow Escape from Super Max
    Green arrow escape from super max Continue In: Green Arrow Movies, Green Arrow: Escape from Super Max, Cancelled Comments Movies Share Green Arrow: Escape from Super Max was a movie in its early stages of development, but due to no real updates from 2008 it can be assumed that it is no longer in development. In the film Green Arrow had to be framed for murder, sent to prison and had to flee. Actors of the story produced by David Goyer and Justin Marx wrote the screenplay for the film starring Green Arrow originally called Super Max. On June 5, 2008, the film was renamed Green Arrow: Escape from Super Max. Reportedly, the storyline is that the hero (framed for a crime he didn't commit) must avoid a maximum-security prison filled with B and C a list of villains and rogue superheroes. MTV published an interview with Marx on its website. In it, he says this: It's a very, very huge prison. I majored in architecture in college, and designing how I actually started in. for Super Max, designing this prison, it had to be the kind of thing that was character in itself, Marks said. We're in a world where instead of just trying to contain a guy who's really big, you're trying to contain a guy who can - in the case of icicles - who can freeze things. What kind of cell does a guy need to neutralize his powers? So to escape from Super Max they have to go through the most difficult heist we've ever seen involving superpowers.
