WONDERECON 2018: BACK TO THE FUTURE THROUGH THE PAST!!!

Welcome back CRAZIES!!!  We are just over a week away from WonderCon 2023!  Of course, before we get to THAT glorious weekend, we have to relive some of the fun of WonderCons past!  That's right folks, we got another one coming!  So fasten your seatbelts and make sure that the caps on your Code Red Mountain Dews are tight, because we are heading back to 2018 as the CRAZY WonderCon Countdown speeds on!  Enjoy...

Some people just can't be trusted to care for pets!

I'm not sure what has spawned this idolization of the late Bob Ross for a better part of the last 10 years, but I'm all for it!  Ross was a very positive person and a great champion of kindness through art.  He's like Fred Rogers if he had chosen painting over TV!

Mr. Freeze was a rather welcome presence at WonderCon that year.  It was hot as Hell!

Coraline chills with the Ninja Turtles in one of those super cool crossover moments that can only occur at a comic book convention!

Of course, Raphael got tired of all the attention and decided to go incognito with April for awhile!

Ah man, don't kill the only likable things to come out of The Last Jedi!

The Dread Pirate Roberts always travels fast!

She seems trustworthy.

HAVE A NICE DAY!!!

Dumbledore and Professor Sprout worked some real magic that weekend!

You're definitely not in Kansas anymore Dorothy!

The Dude abides...

Tom Servo found a new roommate after outgrowing Mike's studio apartment.

Finally, Him and Fuzzy Lumpkins were out looking to cause trouble, but thought better of it.

And that was WonderCon 2018!  Another really fun show that actually saw the first and so far only attempt at an offsite during the con.  Won't go into details other than it didn't work because they forgot about the security parameters around the Convention Center.  Probably just as well.  There really isn't enough space in the area to pull off such things like they do in San Diego.  Of course, my lasting impression of the show will always be my buddy Matt dropping a staggering amount of money on a book and limited edition poster and then finding a way to justify it as a tax write-off!  Some people are born geniuses folks!

Another week down in our CRAZY WonderCon Countdown, but fear not, for next week IS WonderCon itself and we'll be celebrating with even MORE pics than usual!  So be sure to come back and check it out!  Until then, take care, stay safe and I'll catch y'all later!
