One of our favorite parts of any convention is the kickass cosplay! Here are some of the many, MANY X-Men (and a few others) from Emerald City Comic Con:

WE FOUND A HONEY BADGER!!! (Well, she found us. BUT STILL! HONEY BADGER!)

We know they're not technically X-Men, but NOBODY cosplays Clea, and when I saw this one I kind of freaked out, and she was very gracious about it. (Dr. Strange is okay, too, I guess. But CLEA!)

Another really good group. I don't think Cyclops has ever had a beard in canon (not counting his terrrrrible Ultimate version), and that's a shame.

There was surprisingly little Gifted cosplay, but this Polaris was cool enough on her own to more than make up for the absence of her compatriots.

Closing with another non-X-Men costume, because this tiny Hela is amazing and we love her.

Having the wall up at our booth meant we got a ton of rad photos at the con as well as the party. Here's Administratrix Emeritus Tina as Emma Frost!

The drinks at this year's party were Inner Circle (with alcohol) and Hellions (alcohol-free) themed this year! (Inferno Watch was the best, though.)

Shadow is a super awesome local musician, and they came to the party as Wolverine with a viola, which may be the greatest deep-cut cosplay of all time.

It wouldn't be a convention without Cyclops Has a Good Day sketches! Ramon Villalobos went full-on peak '90s, and it is AWESOME.

It's a little off-theme; but, look, when you get a chance to ask Larry Stroman to draw Havok, YOU ASK LARRY STROMAN TO DRAW HAVOK.
