Cosplay Con

Hooray for another new free con at Frank’s.
Cosplay Con was CROWDED. They had to have a shuttle service and everything. Loads of people coming from every which was just to meet Stan Lee. While I was taking a break, catching up on «Saga,» a woman sat down next to me and we started chatting. Apparently she’d driven down from Seattle for this. I was astonished.
Though Uncle Stan’s health and recent canceled appearances might have been a factor, it’s amazing that these free little cons aren’t just attended by the locals anymore.
Anyway, I had a lot of fun and all the cosplayers who came were great. Other than a costume contest near the end of the day, there wasn’t really any programming, so you were either there for signatures (Stan, J. Scott Campbell, Rob Liefeld, etc) or you were just checking out what people were wearing.
There were several known cosplayers and groups there with booths: the 501^st, Mandalorians, Avengers Initiative, Ivy Doomkitty, Krystal Method, and so on. People were dressed as all sorts of things: superheroes, stormtroopers, Walt from «Breaking Bad,» a female Daryl from «Walking Dead,» Stay Stuft with the 10^th Doctor in tow, and members of KISS among other things.
Great job putting this together, guys. Keep it up!
