There were a number of conventions going on last weekend. For me the convention of choice was ComiCONN 2013. It was held at the same hotel as last year, which mean the parking was as bad, but they did try to use more available space, including the patio, which made things less cramped than last year. it wasn’t perfect but it was an improvement. I still say they should have looked into a larger venue. They don’t need room for panels (not yet, anyway), just the guests and dealers.
So while I’m still behind on convention videos (mostly interviews), I will try and have the “walking around” video this week. However, while you wait I have the photos ready to go.
-
- “You want to hurry up, Clark? I need to make a call.”
-
- I don’t know who they’re supposed to be. I jsut thought they looked cool.
-
- There wasn’t a lot of light in that corner. Kind of appropriate for these four.
-
- Connecticut’s official Mr. T cosplayer?
-
- It doesn’t matter what I put here. You’re not reading it right now.
-
- Check out my sweet ride!
-
- Supergirl had a kid and nobody told me?
-
- Mr. T found himself a date.
-
- Obligitory Poison Ive has been missing from my photo collection this year.
-
- Yeah, I’m not reading this, either.
-
- I know he’s supposed to be the Penguin, but I keep thinking of Ozzie Arcane.
-
- Deadpool and the Spider-Men should be the name of a music group.
-
- It’s Black Widow. Should I even bother?
-
- “Doom heard there were highly-detailed Lego buildings. Doom likes Lego buildings.
-
- No joke, the Thing costume is very impressive.
-
- We’re never getting Wally West back, are we?
-
- There were about 5 classic “V” cosplayers, including Diana. This was the only one I caught a pic of. And escaped with my life!
-
- You better read down here because they’re minors!
-
- Same guy was the Third Doctor for ConnectiCon. Recognized me from the Doctor Who Q&A.
-
- Too bad Jim Cummings wasn’t here to see this one.
-
- Sorry, Sam Rami, but this is the Hercules we need.
-
- “Actually, it’s MY sweet ride!”
I have some interviews from last year’s and this year’s ComiCONN to edit but I hope to get the walking around footage from this year’s ComiCONN up by Saturday. This is only my second year and they seem to be getting better. I may check it out next year if I’m able to. Still more to come from conventions.
