Lewis “Linkara” Lovhaug
Lewis “Linkara” Lovhaug is a comic book Youtuber most known for making excessively long videos about children’s media where people in spandex punch rubber suited monsters. When not battling robots, Lovecraftian monster Gods, and evil doppelgangers on his main show “Atop the Fourth Wall,” he’s ranting about the worst dreck the comic book industry has ever thought up and then dressing up like a ghoul to analyze horror comics.
And then he remembers “Oh, yeah, people like it when I talk about Power Rangers, don’t they?” and proceeds to release another retrospective on it.
Tappy Toe Claws
Tappy Toe Claws is a cosplayer, twitch streamer, podcaster and self-proclaimed, sometimes publicly-endorsed, internet funny person. Tappy has been attending cons for almost 20 years as a cosplayer, artist, performer and (usually) loveable scamp.
She’s thrilled to be invited to No Brand Con as an official guest (rather than having to sneak in the back way along with several raccoons like last time.) You may know Tappy from her cosplay work with Magic the Gathering or as a regularly occurring villain and chaos advocate on Tolarian Community College and other fine tcg and table-top programming. Tappy also produces the very normal podcast all about fanfiction and internet fandom culture, Open Tabs, with her co-hosts Amy the Amazonian and Princess Weekes.
Laughing Rat
Laughing Rat is thrilled to return to No Brand Con in 2026! A Milwaukee based cosplay crafter and rodent enthusiast, her work is known for its clean finishing, attention to detail, and always having at least one tiny nibble hole in it. She has competed at many Midwest cons, as well as the Crown Championships of Cosplay at C2E2, Disney’s D23 Mousequerade, and H+H Americas.
Outside of cosplay, she’s usually trying to keep her twelve pet rats from eating things they shouldn’t, reading, knitting, or doing yoga.
