The Portland Wizard Con may not be as big as Comic Con or even their Anaheim incarnation -Wonder Con. Even so, there was tons of great cosplay at the convention -giving Zeon and myself a great excuse to take a work vacation up to the Rose City. Here's some of the best cosplay we spotted throughout the weekend.
One of the best events of the whole weekend was the children's cosplay contest. There we were treated with cuties ranging from Sally and Oogie Boogie to...
head strong Harley Quinn. The contest was great because it was sponsored by anti-bullying charity The Stewart-Beavers Institute.
Not that anyone would ever dare to bully Rocket Raccoon.
The kid's contest was packed with cuteness, so it really would have been impossible to pick a best costume.
So it wasn't all too surprising when the judges announced that everyone was a winner and could collect a prize.
I mean really, would you want to be the one to announce to tiny Rick and Daryl that they were any more or less awesome than balloon boy?
