Comic-Con
2014:
Cosplay - Wednesday and Thursday
Despite what you've seen on the news, 90% of Comic-Con attendees are NOT in costume. (Because a Captain America t-shirt, though cool, does not actually qualify as a costume.). The people cosplaying at Comic-Con are creative individuals who are expressing their love of the culture in sometimes absolutely amazing ways.
There has been a problem with harassment of cosplayers this year, one ending on a triumphant note (Adrienne Curry, we met a few years ago at a party, and I want to say YOU GO, GIRL!) and one, unfortunately, that we're still seeing playing out.
So look -- we run these pictures for the reason that people like to scroll through and see them, there's no lying about that. But the other thing is -- we CELEBRATE people with the vision to put these costumes together. I occasionally work as an actor; I also get that this is five days of getting to be someone you might not feel like you are in real life. So Go Go Gobots, fight on, Rai, and again, Adrienne? YOU GO, GIRL!

We'll give this one a pass because 1) DeviantArt rules and 2) they let us into the party.
