Fandom comes is all colors, shades, nationalities, sexes, and peoples, especially at Dragon Con, which takes place over Labor Day weekend annually in Atlanta, Georgia.  The gathering of the Black Geeks of Dragon Con is one of [literally] hundreds of planned and organized cosplay photoshoots that happen during the convention, and this year it was particularly […]

Nothing like turning a corner during Dragon Con and coming face-to-face with an impressive armored collection of “The Law”- a Judgement of Dredd. We’re still workshopping that collective noun too, but, anytime you see a group of Judge Dredd cosplayers all together, it can be intimidating. Scowls and leather are the name of the game […]

The annual Creative Arts Emmys and Governor’s Awards were given out in Los Angeles, CA last night and we thought maybe you’d like to know who took home gold. The list denotes juried and non juried awards given to the Emmys recipients, check it out: Outstanding Casting For A Comedy Series: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel • […]

Even though Hulu’s award-winning series The Handmaid’s Tale isn’t your typical convention fare, the red cloak and white bonnets were everywhere at Dragon Con this year. We’re thinking the collective noun of handmaids is a habit, but we’re still work shopping that. This collection of photos comes to us from Kristen Schlicht, who very kindly is […]

When Star Wars costumers get together at Dragon Con, it’s always an experience. Add in Imperial Officers and cocktails at one of the skybars in the Hilton host hotel, you’ve got all the makings of a cosplayer’s dream. The Cocktails Over Coruscant [year two, actually] evening libation event is put on by the Imperial Officer Cosplay group; […]

History’s Vikings continues to be a favorite for group cosplay at Dragon Con over Labor Day weekend in Atlanta Georgia, and 2018 was no different. Since the very first season of the series, there have been large groups who gather in their chainmaille and leather to form shield walls all over the host hotels at the convention. […]

There is an ongoing joke that somehow, FOX series The Orville is an official part of the Star Trek universe. It makes sense really, kind of the same way that Galaxy Quest is often the answer to the question “What’s your favorite Star Trek movie?” In this case, a group of Orville crew cosplayers invading the Star Trek-themed party […]

We’re still going through our mountains of images from this year’s Dragon Con (2018), the annual convention that takes place in Atlanta, Georgia. As always, some of the most popular cosplays again where within the realm of the Cosmic Conflict programs, Star Wars.  There were snaplines of Reys, slaplines of Holdos and Leias and Poes, and […]

In a not truly surprising move, the Academy of Motion Pictures has chosen to drop the newly minted “popular film” category from the 91st Annual Academy Awards oscars ceremony. The announcement initially of this new category was met with outright disbelief by many in the industry; why the need to present such a one-sided award […]

If you have never attended Dragon Con in Atlanta Georgia over Labor Day Weekend, you’re missing out on an incredible contention experience. Like the moment we just witnessed during Evangeline Lilly’s Squickerwonkers panel. Namely, the Q & A portion of the panel (which was moderated by the effervescent Tony Gowell and also included Squickerwonkers illustrator Rodrigo Bastos Didier). […]
