Voltz and StripperVash (or Jim and Zach) have been hosting events at conventions across the country for nearly fifteen years and are excited to be returning to Colossalcon as the lovable Hosts we’ve always known. Originating from the midwest originally, Zach and Jim have competed together in masquerades, focusing primarily on skits and performance categories before transitioning into full-time hosting duties. They used to cosplay, and now they sorta don’t, but they’ll make sure that any event they host is a great time!
