Sorry for the delay in getting this voluminous gallery posted here on the Vault, but I've been very busy with work and other stuff, but now it's on! There's so much stuff to put up that I'm going to run it for several days, so get ready for the avalanche of outright geekery, straight from Dragon Con 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia!
-Yer Bunche
Yer Bunche and fellow madman Darwyn (SELINA'S BIG SCORE) Cooke.
POWER GIRL artist Amanda Conner says,"If Power Girl were real, she'd use a Vinnie's Tampon Case!"
A pair of Leeloos from THE FIFTH ELEMENT. I guess that movie struck a chord with female geeks because I've seen the number of chix in Leeloo getups increase year by year.
Watching these two navigate down the stairs was quite an education.
The Green Lantern squares off against the Emerald Empress. According to the Empress, she had the Emerald Eye of Ekron but it popped. Bummer.
Monty Python fans represent: the Bruces, just in from the University of Woolamaloo.
The only way to improve on this shot of the Nostromo crew...
...is to have this guy walk by, having nothing to do with the group. It's convention serendipity.
SPACEBALLS may suck ass, but I will always love Barf. Hell, I like him better than Chewbacca, which is ironic since Barf's a parody of Chewie.
Can you imagine if Pam Grier had played Princess Leia? STAR WARS would have been a whole different ballgame!
This Superman came in all the way from England. I would have loved to have been there to see the customs inspector's reaction to his gear.
The 1940's Silk Spectre.
The Flaming Carrot.
Yer Bunche with Bob Burden.
The Flaming Carrot.
Bob Burden's shocking exhibit of intriguing crypto-zoology evidence: a sweet potato bearing the actual footprint of a Chupacabra! NOTE: for those who don't remember, the Chupacabra, or "Goat-Sucker," was a monster that was first sighted in the early 1990's. I have no idea where Burden's spelling of its name came from, but the version ending in the letter "a" is the common spelling.

But then who would play the black Luke Skywalker?
