Comic-Con 2016: Friday Cosplay

I could never do it. I have to run around too much, and I’ll admit my Bag of Holding would likely ruin the effect of any costume I would want to wear anyway. But I admire the heck out of those who put costumes together and wear them all day at the Con; I even more admire those that put together themes.

So here are cosplayers from Friday:

This intrepid explorer told me her husband themed this for her. I love the commitment to it, and wonder if it’s street legal. I also worried about the delicacy of some of its decoration; in the back there’s a curio cabinet.

When it rains, it pours. It actually did, very briefly, rain on the Monday after Comic-Con.

Morton-Salt-Girl

My favorite of the day — “I saw it in the window and just had to have it.” Time to show the kids some Carol Burnett, people.

I-Saw-It-In-The-Window - Copy

Another favorite, because I loveĀ Over the Garden Wall

Greg-and-Wirt

How do they keep make-up from running in all the heat, the humidity, and the humanity?

Star-Wars-Extras

“I will show you nightmares…” or at least which way to go for the line for Hall H…

Morpheus

Who’s a good Mawg?

Oh, there’s the Knightmare…

He wouldn’t tell me his name…
