HeroesCon 2013

... this weekend at the Charlotte Convention Center. Oodles of fabulous photos below!

Somebody with a truly twisted sense of humor scheduled HeroesCon the same day as the North Carolina Republican Convention. It certainly wasn't hard to figure out who was going to which convention! The dumbfounded/confused expressions on the faces of the GOP attendees as they gaped at various superheroes, was reminiscent of the days conservatives stared at hippies in abject amazement. I enjoyed it FAR TOO MUCH!

First up: artists, writers and illustrators.... with a particular emphasis on those marvelous beings known as LADY COMIC BOOK ARTISTS. Every year, there are more women artists, and I am just SO PROUD of them. (One of those activities that so many of us dreamed of when we were girls, but had never even heard of any woman attempting, much less actually doing.) I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

You can click all photos to enlarge. I tried to get their names in the shot, and if I couldn't, at least attempted to get the names of their comics so you can look em up.

Cosplay time. (Starting with Waldo; you've been wondering WHERE he was, right?)

Crowds, t-shirts, batmobiles, etc.




And a splendid time was had by all.
