CONNECTICON XVI wrapped up Sunday at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford, CT. Cosplays included many old standbys, plus a few new characters (and a few that haven't even come out yet), as well as a collection of uncategorizable oddities and curiosities that make 'Cons fun!
Guests included renowned voice actress Vanessa Marshall (Hera Syndulla of Star Wars Rebels), Jon St. John (Duke Nukem), DeeDee Magno Hall (Pearl of Steven Universe), Steven Blum (TOM) and others. Local celeb Art the Hypnotist graced us with several performances.
