Gamers, anime geeks, cosplayers, furries and every other ne'er-do-well of the nerd order descended upon the Doubletree Miami  Hotel this past weekend for the latest iteration of Supercon, South Florida's largest anime and comic book convention. This Supercon's main event was a reunion of much of the major male cast from "Futurama:" Billy West, John DiMaggio, Phil Lamarr and Maurice Lamarche, with guest appearances by voice actor Rob Paulsen (best known as the voice of Raphael in the 1987 version of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles") and a performance by the Gainesville-based video game remix band, Select Start.

Here is a sampling of the chaos that went down this time.
