While it isn’t close to the size of Comic-Con, its little sister WonderCon continues to grow, and you can run into an almost limitless number of interesting costumed fans wherever you go.
Being an avid “Star Wars” fan, I had to include these cool costumed fans in this photo collection, as there never seems to be an end to the creative--and in many cases, orthodox--quality costumes put together by Star Wars buffs.
Along with the must-have characters of Darth Vader, Princess Leia and the cool looking Boushh, there were some interesting cross-character mashups, one included in the photos below.
WonderCon and “Star Wars” fans never cease to amaze in their quality and creativity.
