LONG BEACH COMIC CON GETS THE HAUNTING SEASON STARTED!!!

 WELCOME TO OCTOBER MY CRAZIES!!!  Tis the season for some haunting!  And part of that haunting usually involves costumes, and there's no better place to find some at than a Comic Con.  And wouldn't ya know it?  I just went to one up in Long Beach!  Yup, it was my eighth-straight year at the Long Beach Comic Con where I had a wonderful time and saw some amazing cosplay.  So rather than ramble on, I'm just gonna launch right into the pics. Enjoy...

The King of the Oceans, Aquaman has a lot to prove this fall when he finally gets a solo film!  Will it work?  We'll just have to see for ourselves.

A bulldog wookie!  I want one so bad!

Robocop is still on a mission to find former WCW Promoter Jim Herd to collect on some back pay.

This is one of the best Madeye cosplays I've ever seen!

Now and forever, this Cats cosplay may well be the most random cosplay I've ever seen at a con!  Leave it to LBCC for the wacky stuff to surface, which I absolutely love by the way!

John Hammond spared no expense on his cosplay props!

Think they had a little too much fun doing the "Time Warp Again!"

It's always nice for some "Dance Magic" to be brought to a con!

This Small Wonder had all of us 80's kids in awe over her VIKKI cosplay!

 BEST COSPLAY OF THE CON!!!  Skipper, Gilligan, Mary-Anne and Ginger totally killed it!

 

Another superb cosplay!  Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman truly is iconic.

Angelica may not be an angelic character, but this was a great cosplay!

Predator Ewok!  We'll probably see these in the future now that Disney owns Fox.

Dummies can be pretty evil in theory.

LBCC had live pro wrestling going on all weekend!  Sadly, it wasn't exactly up to par with some of the stuff we see on TV.  A few of the wrestlers didn't even look old enough to drive yet!  Still, they had an impressive setup at least and who knows?  Maybe someday we'll see some of them in WWE or ROH.

Maskless Deadpool photobombing Peridot!

Little buff Flash meeting the King of the Monsters himself, Godzilla!

The Yip Yaps!

An insanely good Jafar!  This dude was nearly 7ft tall too!

The legendary Sega Mark III, the Holy Grail for Sega Collectors!

For the first time ever, Joe Dirt cosplay!

Batman in bat-business attire doing the bat-dance!

A spot-on Captain Eo here to change the world!

Johnny V can now be spotted hanging out with the R2 Builders Club!  No one under the age of 30 knew who he was either.  Ingrates!

Few know of the crossover storyline where the Venom symbiote attacked the Green Power Ranger prior to attacking Peter Parker.

Party on Wayne!  Party on Garth!

Cholo Thanos with the Infinity Chancla!  This isn't the same one that I saw at SDCC back in July.  Still hilarious and awesome though.  We've reached a point where there are now cosplayers of cosplayers at cons!

And that was Long Beach Comic Con 2018.  A very short weekend that went by far too fast, but still a lot of fun!  LBCC has suffered in recent years in that other big cons are happening the same weekend, drawing away many longtime exhibitors.  Hopefully this won't be a continuing trend because LBCC is such a fun show and I really miss many of the booths that used to be there regularly.  Still, it was a great time had by all and I look forward to next year's show.  Thanks again for a wonderful weekend Long Beach!

And that's that!  Some spooky fun art is heading your way starting next week, so be ready!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later!
