Wondercon 2010: A Picture Is Worth 1000 Geeks

Wondercon 2010, a Comic-Con offshoot at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, graced us yet again, from April 2nd-4th. Of course, I could blab about what happened, but we know that you don't want to read pictures are so much better than words. So to keep things brief, let's just say that "Wondercon = The Best Easter Ever".
