Who doesn’t love some good cosplay? Well, there was plenty of it at WonderCon this year. You can see a few more over at Neatorama.
Comic Characters:
Bat Woman is absolutely beautiful and quite sexy. For that matter, so is Poison Ivy. The new Captain Marvel is Super Sexy. -Thanks thatmagnificentbastard for IDing her. I have never seen a Ninja Turtle Costume this good. Bebop looked great too. Green Arrow and The Black Canary make one hell of a pair. Doctor Doom and the Scarlet Witch were perfect together. The Riddler, Joker and Harley were ready to go to war. What Aquaman was doing with Venom and Doctor Doom, I’ll never know. Wonder Woman could certainly take down all those evil doers. Batman was all too ready to take down Bane this time. Robin, Joker and Harley make a good trio even if they aren’t all on the same side. Ivy and Harley Quinn are looking pretty. And for the first time, I got to see Elf Quest cosplay.
Cartoons:
There was also plenty of anime and cartoon costumes. There were a lot of Ice Kings.  The Baroness always looks sexy, I just wish this picture came out better. A member of the crimson guard -thanks Thatmagnificentbastard. She-Ra and He-Man looked good together, but I think He-Man could stand to work out those abs a little more. This He-Man was in much better shape -and those red underwear are quite flattering. Princess Merida had an utterly amazing dress and her three brother bears were quite cute too. This Venellope Von Schweets costume (thank you Ciara) reminds me of a tasty cupcake. Here are a variety of the Disney villains as their steam punk equivalent.
TV Shows and Movies:
From The Mickey Mouse Club to Rocky and more, here are all kinds of characters from a crazy variety of movies and TV shows. Â All three of these Game of Thrones characters look great, but Baelish really looked spot on. The Aquabats were ready to rock! Jason, a zombie cop and Freddy are all looking terrifying. Mal was quite dashing, as usual. Wash and Jayne were also in good form. Ripley was ready to kick ass, as usual, but I miss little Jones. Karen of The Mickey Mouse Club was in perfect style and Disney was right behind her. I’ve seen dozens of TARDIS dresses, but never a TARDIS pancho before. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with TARDIS dresses, especially with David Tennant. Pirate Amy and Cowboy Doctor looked adorable together. The great thing about this costume was that it was all Duct Tape, including the accessories. The official Star Trek booth babe looked great too. Barf and Dark Helmet enjoyed a snack together. Boba never looked so good, or so girly. Who says you need a whole costume to get in the fun? This Gonzo was still quite delightful.
Robot cowboys are always pretty awesome. This guy is from the Aquabats Super Show -thanks Rhian!
Video Games:
As always, there were plenty of cosplayers showing support for their favorite video games. I don’t remember the Brotherhood wearing jeans, but it’s been a while. Portal and Bioshock could actually make an incredible game when combined. Everyone always loves Zelda. This is Tira from Soul Caliber (thanks Chris). Morrigan from Darkstalkers simply adores Superman. -Thanks for recognizing her Thatmagnificentbastard! Mad Moxxxie is perhaps the sexiest game character around. There was a lot of love for this Jak costume. Here’s Terra from Final Fantasy 6 (thanks Chris).
Miscellaneous:
These guys don’t really fit in anywhere else, but they’re still awesome. Minnie R2-D2 was played by the girl who usually plays as Hello Kitty R2-D2. These adorable little robot critters were available for sale at the convention. The other side of his sign said, “Caution, may contain awesome.”
Odd Pairings:
They may not go together in ordinary circumstances, but they still look awesome. Sexy Sherlock and a female version of the entire MST3K TV show. Silk Spectre and Doctor Manhattan with the new Bioshock cast? Why not? The middle character is a Moogle, Katara from Avatar the Last Airbender is on the left (thanks Kaye), and the girl on the right is Lulu from Final Fantasy X -thank you plusone78! Power Girl, Samas Aran and Phoenix. -Thanks thatmagnificentbastard Witchblade and Master Chief looked surprisingly sexy together. I love that sexy Chewbacca appears to be Bat Girl’s mom and that the two are being interviewed by Kermit. Harley Quinn should go on Yo Gabba Gabba sometime -that would make me want to dance. Pinkie Pie and female Loki make a great pair, which isn’t something I’d expect. Tank Girl and Gadget are from such drastically different worlds, but that’s what makes this pairing so fantastical.
I know the girl in the corset is Wic from The Devil’s Carnival (thanks Bryan) and she doesn’t belong with the other three, but I still have no idea who any of them are but the group still looks great together. The three other gals are from Homestuck, the two on the left are trolls, but even Chris doesn’t recognize the last one. Thanks Kendra for explaining these all. She explains:
Hi! I’m the wick cosplayer, and I can say that my friend on the right is Definitely the Condesce (how it is spelled) with her Betty Crocker make-up falling off. The troll on the far left is Equius, and the troll next to her is (from what I can remember) either Meenah or Feferi.
Unknown:
Have some idea who these characters are? I’d love to know so I can better organize them! The Minnie ears were just for fun, but I can’t tell you who she’s playing. Thatmagnificentbastard identified Zarana, Destro, Serpentor, and Baroness. Can anyone else identify the last guy?
As always, if you recognize some of the unknown costumes, leave a comment so I can properly identify them! Samas Aran

i know a few:
1) chick w/ superman = Morrigan from Darkstalkers
2) chick in red, gold & blue = carol danvers AKA “new captain marvel”
3) chick w/ powergirl & phoenix = samus aran (metroid)
4) stand alone gi joe character = crimson guard
5) gijoe chars from left to right – zarana, destro, serpentor, baroness and no idea
The first unidentified girl is Terra from FF6 (specifically from the manual’s drawing of her, seen here: http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/scale_small/1/14211/417761-6_terra_a.jpg)
The 4th (with the big hula hoop sword thing) is Tira from Soul Caliber (I think she was introduced in 4, but maybe 3)
Under her, in blue is Katara from Avatar the Last Airbender (no idea who the one in black is though).
I’m pretty sure the robot cowboy is actually supposed to look like badly rendered polygons, maybe one of the bad guys from the sort of obscure Alone in the Dark 3?
The last girls are from Homestuck. The two on the left are trolls, and the girl on the right is from after I stopped reading, but she’s definitely from Homestuck. Betty Crocker is a recurring theme. Maybe she’s the grandma, before the grandma was dead? I dunno.
katara the water-bender from avatar the last airbender is in the blue and white dress next to the moogle.
I have been hunting for pics of the wife and I. Thanks for posted the Doctor and his Tardis.
the girl with the hoop skirt in the homestuck picture is wick from the devil’s carnival
The cosplayer of Katara is the one out of place in that trio pic towards the end…the girl in black on the other side of the Moogle is cosplaying Lulu from FFX 🙂

The dress that you said looks like a cupcake is Venellope Von Schweets from the Disney movie Wreck-It Ralph!!!
the orange and blue guy next to the baroness is the Alley Viper http://gijoe.wikia.com/wiki/Alley_Viper_(RAH)
That unidentified ‘robot cowboy’ is actually the Android Sheriff from The Aquabats Supershow! He was the villain in the episode Cowboy Android!
Hi! I’m the wick cosplayer, and I can say that my friend on the right is Definitely the Condesce (how it is spelled) with her Betty Crocker make-up falling off. The troll on the far left is Equius, and the troll next to her is (from what I can remember) either Meenah or Feferi. I can’t say for sure which, because it was an obscure concept, but very well done nonetheless. And there you go! 😀 Thanks so much for the photo~
The robot cowboy is from a movie called “Westworld”.
