It’s not often I can just wander the floor and admire costumes at Comic-Con. But I did manage to stop while on my way to somewhere else and ask for a pose. Of course there were more that were impressive, so this is just a snippet of what Comic-Con brings out in cosplay. I’ll admit, too, that sometimes when the floor feels too crowded, I can’t bring myself to cause a crowd clot.
And as I type this, I just realized I didn’t see the guy who dresses as Alvin the Chipmunk every year. I hope he’s okay.
