Thanagar

Comic Con 2006: Hawkman

You got to love Hawkman. I think he is an under used character currently. I wonder if he will get another reboot like Flash or Green Lantern

Batman 66

Comic Con 2007: Batman 66

I love when I see a Batman tv show costume. I think that if they made this TV show now, the costume would change every year.

Dr. Henry Killinger

Comic Con 09: Dr. Henry Killinger

He is not really an evil Doctor, but he does not work on the side of the good guys. I have to say I love the slippers.

Merry Christmas

Comic Con 2007: The Real Halo

I do not think I have enough costumes for 12 days of Christmas. I guess I will just have to go with this one. Merry Christmas!

My favorite Hero

Comic Con 2007: Ready To Fight

Captain America is my favorite super hero. I think it is because he is a very hard character to write well. There are lots of ways to write him poorly. When written well he is everything a superhero can be. This year I got the Captain American ornament for my Christmas Tree.

Robin

Comic Com 2009: Robin

I love this Robin costume. I love when women cosplay Robin. I am not sure if this is really cross play because there have been two female Robins. It is still kind of cool.

Comic Com 2009: Robin

Altered Villains

Comic Con 2008: New Costumes

On some level these are not costumes, but fashions inspired by Gotham Villains. I still think it is pretty cool.

Twilight Lady

Comic Con 2009: Twilight Lady

I think Twilight Lady is in three or four frames of Watchmen. I love that someone still cosplaying her. I think that is really cool.

Red Shirt

Comic Con 2008: Dying Redshirt

I am so happy he was willing to pretend to die for me. What else is a red shirt good for?

Unknown Costume

Comic Con 2007: Superhero

I have no idea who this character is. I have the feeling it is a costume the guy wearing it just made up. You do not see this as much with comic book characters like you do with anime, fantasy or star wars characters.

Scarlet Witch

Comic Con 2007: Scarlet Witch

You got to love a costume that looks like it came right from the lingerie store.

The Last Venture Bros Episode of the Year

Wonder Con 2009: Henchmen

The Venture Bros. has become my one of my favorite television shows. It is second on my list of the current top five comedies. The last episode of the season is tonight. I am expecting a big fight between 21 and Brock in the episode. With everything they have done this season, I expect it will live up to the hype.

Terra

Wonder Con 2009: Terra

Terra was a character with a huge impact on the Teen Titans, but kind of under used. I am happy to see she is part of Darkest Night. I want to see another version of her really be a bad ass villain.

Starblasers Crew Member

Comic Com 2009: Starblazers Crew Member

I love Starblazers. It does not get as much love as we expect. I can't wait for someone to make to make a Starblazers live action movie. It think it would be a cool movie.

Gender and Costume

Comic Con 08: Ms Joker and Mr. Quinn

I see lots of female Jokers. It is great because they have to be creative to make it work. This is the only male Harley Quinn I have ever seen. I know there is Earth-11 in the DC Multiverse were the genders are reverse. I would love to see she Joker v. Batwoman stories from that world.

Comic Con 08: Crazy Happy

Galatucs is F'n Metal

Comic Con 2006 is F'N Metal

If I was dressed like the world eater, I would have a little word sandwich to carry around with me.

Twilight Cheerleaders

Comic Con 2008: Twilight Cheerleaders

At comic con 2008 I had no idea about Team Edward and Team Jacob. They were everywhere, but I was clueless. I do not feel my life is any richer for knowing.

Sunday, December 6, 2009

Catwoman

Comic Con 2006: Cat Woman

When I see someone dressed like this I wonder how much of this is cosplay and how much is lifestyle

Ghost In The Shell

Comic Con 2009: Ghost in the Shell

I should really get into Ghost In the Shell. I have heard really good things about the story. I am just not sure I can get my wife into it.

Starfire

comic con 2008: Starfire

I know she is supposed to be Starfire, but I did not notice at first. I think she really needs a way to find a way do the orange skin. Even if she had a little more self tan it would work.


comic con 2008: Starfire's F'N Metal

Sub-Mariner

Comic Con 2007: Namor the Sub-Mariner

I love this Sub-Mariner costume. This guy cosplays this perfectly. I never thought I would see a Sub-Mariner. Mostly because there is so little to the costume.

Ewok

Comic Con 09: Ewok

Now only had I not seen an Ewok costume before this one. I never ever thought about someone cosplaying an Ewok. I think this is a great costume for that reason.

Sue Storm

Comic Con 2007: Sue Storm

I am impressed by this costume. I would be more impressed if she figured a way to make part of herself invisible, but that might be too much to ask for.

Zombie Woman

Comic Con 2009:

Is that her blood or someone else's blood? I am never sure when it comes to a zombie

Shaun of the Dead

Comic Con 2006: Shaun and the Dead

Watch out for the Zombies! They are right behind you. Hopefully the cricket bat is enough to hold them off.

Cold Yet?

Comic Con 2007: Cold Yet?

Yeah, Mr Freeze is best played the way he is in the Batman cartoon. I like him as the reluctant villain who is trying to save his wife. I like the idea of Batman's villains having a wide range of motivations.

Comic Con 2007: Mr Freeze

The Flipsides

Comic Con 2007: Friends and Enemies

I never stop running into guys dressed like Mario at conventions. Wario is a little more rare.

Wario and Mario are F'N Metal

Yuna

Outside Fanimecon 2008: Yuna

I wonder why I do not see more Final Fantasy costumes at comic con. They seems to be more popular at Fanimecom.

Duffman

Comic Con 2008: Duffman

(in my best Duffman voice) Duffman, cosplaying at Comic Con, Oh Yeah!

Watchmen Gallery

Comic Con 2009: Nite Owl II

I have been playing with the Flickr Gallery feature. I created a Watchmen Costume Gallery. These are some of the best I have seen. I hope to keep it up to day.

Green Hornet and Kato

Comic Con 08: The other Duo

This is a great set of matching costumes.

Scarlet Spider

Comic Con 2008: Scarlet Spider

Am I the only person who really loved the Spider-Man Clone storyline? I loved the idea that Peter Parker was really the Clone and Ben Reilly the real one. I still thought the Scarlet Spider was a good character. If this was DC, he would have stayed around.

I'm Not Bad, I'm Just Drawn That Way

Comic Con 2008: Jessica Rabbit

This cosplayer might just be a little bad. I am happy to see Jessica rabbit still gets a little respect.
