WONDERCON IS COMING AND THE COUNTDOWN IS ON!!!

 WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!  IT'S COMING!!!  IT'S COMING!!!  WONDERCON IS COMING!!!  Alright, I know, I gotta calm down.  But it's hard to do I'm so excited!  We are roughly two weeks away from WonderCon 2020. A most spectacular show just an hour and a half up the road in Anaheim, I got my tickets and will be celebrating this awesome event this final week of March and ALL of April, even though it's in the middle of the month, but hey, scheduling is everything in blogging!

As is always the case, we'll be celebrating the coming con with a look back at cons from year's past.  Today, we're going back to 2014.  We know the location, we know the year, we just need the pics.  Hold on to your Batman Underoos kids, because all systems are go!  Enjoy...

Outside of the con, these two are bitter enemies.  But when the show's going on, everybody gets along just fine! 

You can always count on April to deliver the news when she's not washing cars! 

The Witch King tries to keep Frodo on a short leash.  It's easy for a hobbit to get lost in the crowd! 

Wouldn't be much of a con without some Harley Quinn cosplay.  I doubt Birds of Prey's box office gross will scare anyone off from trying. 

Vegeta's showing off his stylish moo-stache!

It's Wacky Inflatable Waving Arms Salesman!  He did a great job of directing us towards the food trucks outside!

Galadriel and Gandalf take a bit of time away from the quest to Mordor to take in the sights and sounds of WonderCon!

For being such a panned movie, Batman Forever sure does inspire a lot of cosplay.  Oh yeah, Harley Sighting #2!

And Harley Sighting #3!  If they made a drinking game out of Harley Quinn sightings at a comic con, the results wouldn't be very pretty!

Well, well, well!  April O'Neal giving Harley Quinn a little bit of a run for her money here! 

Until 2014, I'd never seen Yoko Ono cosplay before.  Guess I can cross that off the bucket list! 

The Force was strong with this bunch! 

Well, she may be gone from the ride, but the Red Head from the Pirates of the Caribbean Wench Auction still roams the aisles at WonderCon!

We end things today with a crossover of epic proportions!  There are many changes that occur when the original Japanese footage is edited down into the American Power Rangers.  The producers here didn't think the storyline where they fight Gumby and Pokey would play well stateside!

And that was WonderCon 2014.  Not one of my better shows.  I did very poorly in sales and just couldn't catch any breaks that year.  My rash of last minute sketch card sales were about the only saving grace.  Sadly, we need ass beatings like that from time to time to wake us up.  I certainly learned something from it!  Despite all that, I still had some fun and even made a few new friends.  This is definitely the end of the line for pics from this year as I'm just about out!  Between 2012-2015 I tabled at WonderCon and didn't get to walk around much, hence the reason I've never had too many pics from those years.  If anything, I might do a potpourri post next year with leftover photos.  It all depends on when WonderCon happens in 2021.

And that's a wrap on the month of March and the first Week of the WonderCon Countdown!  It's more of the same next week, so be sure to come back and get a heaping helping of fun!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later!
