Well, I've said my piece and set the Wayback Machine to our destination. We are heading to the year 2015 y'all, so make sure your epic game of D&D set up and saved and hang on tight to your Code Red Mountain Dews, because the countdown is once again on! Enjoy...
The Power Rangers patrolled the halls all weekend long, keeping WonderCon free of internet trolls!
Spawn was in the house and had a special message for John Leguizamo! This is a family site though, so I won't repeat it!
That's a lotta leather and chains there!
Kit Fisto! Is it me or does anybody else think that Lucas dropped the ball with this character? As brief as his heroics are in Attack of the Clones, it really did feel like a teaser for something a little bit bigger in Revenge of the Sith. Maybe there's a Disney+ series in the works?
It's Woody! Howdy howdy howdy!
Lilly! Grandpa and Herman have done it again!
The King of the Monsters was prowling down my aisle looking for executives from Warner Bros and Legendary Films! He's not too happy about humans being the primary focus of his latest movies!
An Astrodroid! These little guys always make things fun. At least until you trip over one!
The Pink Ranger was really interested in my art and even bought a few Mike & Mindy paper craft kits! She then helped battle a giant monster that surfaced from the Hall B bathrooms!
Not sure which is cooler here: The Patriotic Mario costume or the Gameboy Camera he's using!
Quailman is in the house and rocking those tighty whities proudly!
DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!! ARMS FLAILING UNCONTROLLABLY!!!
It's the creature who flaps in the middle of the night! The daring duck of mystery! DARKWING DUCK!!! Let's get dangerous!
We end things today with some art that's PHAT!!! Excuse me, I mean FAT!!! We all love sugary cereals, but too much can lead to some gut busting consequences! So of course last year, I bought several boxes of Funco Pops! I know my buddy Scott Warren can appreciate this!
And that's a wrap on WonderCon 2015! My last year as an exhibitor there and boy what a turnaround I had from the year prior! I almost left WonderCon 2014 in tears I was so depressed at how bad things had gone. This year (2015), I couldn't believe I was walking out with a profit, made even more wild as I'd been battling a sinus infection the whole week! My sketch cards played a huge role in the turn around and I've largely focused on them ever since as my top seller. Although I still attend as a pro, I don't table anymore and have no regrets. Aside from being expensive, it's pretty stressful too. Even with things going right, it can be quite hectic behind the table. I won't rule out a return to the chairs side of the aisle, especially since I ain't getting any younger, but for now, I'm really enjoying just walking around and seeing things. And I'm proud that I could walk out of WonderCon 2015 with my head held very high! This will also be the end of the line for 2015 pics, as I think have seven or eight left! Depending on scheduling next year, a few may appear in a potpourri post, but for now, it's goodbye and goodwill to men for WonderCon 2015!
And that's all she wrote for today! Next week, we'll be back with another look at a past WonderCon as we prep for next weekend's big show! I'll have my usual tips and tricks as well as info on where I might be found roaming the halls and Downtown Anaheim in general! Hoping to get a big group to hit up Boysenberry Fest at Knott's Berry Farm next Thursday too, so stay tuned to this blog and Twitter to learn more! Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later!
