Gallery of Costumes from WonderCon 2007

By Great White Snark | March 5, 2007

Although I missed the official WonderCon Masquerade (I was all nerded-out by Saturday night), I did manage to snap quite a few shots of costumed conventioneers. Click for bigger images, if you’re into that sort of thing.

This dude told me he was planning five costume changes for Saturday. He also wants you to know that the battery that usually illuminates his visor had run out. Someone is taking costuming a l-i-i-i-i-ttle bit too seriously.

501st Legion in the house!

Hello, Asian Spengler. (Or, as my late grandmother might say, “Hello, Oriental Spengler.”)

What the eff do you think these two jokers are talking about? My guess: cheap parlor tricks. Or American Idol. I don’t know.

These broads are hot… for a comic book convention.

Hell-o-o-o-o daddy issues.

This is my kind of costume. Look for me carrying around a gum ball machine for Halloween. (Yes, I know it’s the MST3000 guys.)

Cute kid. Sadly, after this photo was taken, he was frozen in carbonite and flown to Jabba’s palace.

A tool with his tool. (On the other hand, this guy couldn’t have been much worse in the prequels than Hayden Christensen was.)

I hope this dude knows that he has dishonored the emblem of the Green Lantern by 1) dressing up as a hero that doesn’t even exist and 2) being a dork.

I have no ill to speak of this guy, because he actually seemed pretty cool. Plus… sweet costume.

What’s a comic book convention without some nerd playing with nunchucks?

UPDATE: Laughing Squid has some pretty sweet WonderCon photo-footage, as well.

      dood - cool pantheon of uber-geeks. Although, I strongly object to the last photo, it should be nixed right quick. A pair of safety nunchuks and a t-shirt that says “Ninja with Attitude” does not a costume make.

      Think of it as a pantheon of things you should never, ever wear outside of WonderCon. I think nunchucks/t-shirt combo falls squarely in that category.

      Hey, y’know, rag on those three chicks if you want to, but I definately wouldn’t kick the gal playing Wonder Woman outta bed.
