Wonder WOMAN that is. Well sort of. Sandra O. Noshi-Di’ni’t showed the cosplayers a thing or two with her amazing portrayal of Diana of Themyscira. She worked those fabulous boots as she accompanied Popapathy and myself all over Moscone Center, availing herself to the many fans who wanted a photo opportunity.

Since WonderCon is in San Francisco, I’m sort of surprised that I haven’t noticed any drag queen superheroines at WonderCon before. People’s reactions make me think that there have not been many before. It was fun watching people realize that she was a drag queen. Between that and watching the straight fanboys get a load of my shirt was very entertaining. I usually got a surprised look as they scan down and see the Boy Wonder yankin down his undies. We did get a few "how DARE you" glares from guys in Batman t-shirts, but other than that it was a great time free of venom or vitriol.

Crowds were thinner on Friday but picked up Saturday as many more costumes appeared peppering the throngs. We were lucky enough to run into the “Genderbent JLA” and take a few picks with them. I’d have to say they were my favorite costume group – and YES it was because of Power Guy. Yum.

We spent a lot of time near the PRISM Comics booth (special shout-out and thanks to their event chair – Ted Abenheim for all his help and support). This year they expanded their booth space in partnership with Steve MacIsaac (Shirtlifter), Ed Luce (Wuvable Oaf), and Northwest Press, so it really was Queer Central even more than usual.

We got to hang out with many of the great PRISM Comics volunteers and creators such as Justin Hall (Glamazonia the Uncanny Super Tranny), Jon Macy (Fearful Hunter, Teleny and Camille) and Prism Comics’ president Charles “Zan” Christensen (co-creator of The Mark of Aeacus AND Publisher of Northwest Press).

When not in front of PRISM Comics, we travelled from that booth to the Slumberland Press/So Super Duper Comics/RLT Press Booth – where we hob-knobbed with LGBT comics creators: Brian Andersen (So Super Duper, Sex and the Superhero and many more indie LGBT titles), Rich Boutell (InterSections: The Dark), Desmond Miller (Foxhunters, Hansel and Gretel: Agents of the Coven), artists Ken Hadley, Blake Curia, Kevenn T. Smith and Gene Guilmette.

While on our way to hear Frank Quitely speak, we ran into the petite and buxom Diana Terranova (dressed as a sexy Robin) who interviewed both Sandra O. Noshi-Di’ni’t AND myself about the Queer side of WonderCon.

We covered a number of topics including: this Blog, The HeroesNHunks event at TRUCK and how gay geeks aren’t really any different than straight geeks. We grew up reading the books and just as the straight boys love the perfect bodies of the super-ladies seen within, we gay geeks love to see muscular powerhouses in their super-tights.

There were some great costumes. I’m sure I missed a few good ones on Sunday – the last day. But after 2 days of walkng those miles of aisles and THEN hosting the HNH event (more on that next), I needed to relax, rest and recuperate.

But I’ve had a good days sleep and am now ready to share, so enjoy the pics above. And if you have any hot shots of costumed boys from Friday, Saturday OR Sunday – send em to fanboi@heroesnhunks.com!
