Check out the action packed art displayed at this special convention for comic book fanatics. The Charlotte Comicon convention was held at the Embassy Suites hotel On August 7th,2016. We got a sneak peak of the action heroes and villains coming to life! Vibrant dressed cosplay performers were fully energized and ready to take on the mission. The awards ceremony would later decide which cosplay character had best embodied the comic book spirit. DC Comics and Marvel Comics are two of the most popular comics brand. However there are few new kids on the Block - such as Wolly Vinyl. In this issue we were well prepared to capture every villain behind our camera lenses!

To our surprise many of the attendees were not Charlotte residents. Shown in the photo above, one artist had traveled all the the way from Virginia for our comicCon. If you like polictical art stay tuned for more commentary on "Anti Trump" Art. As the election date grows closer we will continue to give you more insight to how art and life impact each other.
Plus in our next blog we'll explore costumes to give you a head start on Halloween 2016 trends. In the comment section below tell us which cosplay characters you liked the most - or as Wolly calls them "Champions."
