The Baltimore Comic Con wrapped its 2016 edition this past weekend at the Baltimore Convention Center. MillionairePlayboy was there to grab swag, meet artists and of course, check out all the sweet cosplay. Check out our gallery below!





Everybody loves Suicide Squad. At Awesome Con we saw a million Force Awakens Reys, but I don’t think I saw any at the Baltimore Comic Con. It was Harley, Harley, Harley. Everybody was Harley. A few Jokers, but mostly Harley.

Someone said that you can’t cosplay as Batman unless you do something completely remarkable. This guy’s bat suit had rigid poles so he’d get this impressive wingspan when he lifted his arms. The ingenuity comes in that when he put his arms down, it was completely unnoticeable and he didn’t take up any more room than a typical con-goer. (Keep your jokes to yourself).

The highlight of the con for me was meeting Mad Balls comic artist Brian Smith. My son and I are huge fans of the comic and were thrilled to meet one of the artists. We grabbed four of the variant covers, got em signed and then snagged an awesome head sketch of Hornhead. My son is getting into drawing comics and was able to ask Brian all kinds of questions. One of the special things about a con is the interaction you get with the artists and creators.

I would have loved to have met Kevin Eastman, or Al Jaffee, both were huge influences in my drawing style when I was growing up. As to be expected, Mr. Eastman had a huge line at his table.

We got some great shopping in as well. My son scored with some Pokemon cards and LEGO minifigures, I got a handful of TPBs at 50% off, and Yeager scored a phonebook-sized Goon from the Diamond Comics Booth, and then got it promptly signed by Eric Powell. In years past we’ve always had a huge plan of action, with lists of booths to hit and scheduled events to hit, but this year we took a much more laid back approach to just show up and soak it all in, and we all had a blast. Do what works for you.

We saw tons of obscure and hilarious cosplay, as well as regular favorites. Check out our massive gallery below and see what you like. And mark your calendars, the 2017 Baltimore Comic Con is September 22-24!
