SDCC: Comic-con's cosplay collection, part one  photo

Cosplay pictures. It's what you do at these things. Sure, there's games and comics and movies and celebrities, but you have to do the cosplay photo collection sometime. We've put together a gallery for you featuring some of the better ones we've come across so far, with help from our friend Flynn De Marco.

There's not as much game-related stuff as I hoped there would be, but what can you do? What we have seen is fantastic, but they're beat out by the comic and anime/manga stuff. Naturally, G.I. Joe is huge this weekend, as is Batman. Of course, there's always Star Wars and Superman stuff. I saw the hottest Supergirl yesterday. For the time, a picture would not have been appropriate. I'll see what I can do.

Mind you that the weekend is still young, and that the best stuff happens on Saturday. Look for more photos throughout the weekend here on Destructoid as well as on Japanator.

The beard on that dude playing Bill makes him look like a muppet.

The Green Lantern guy's face made me crack up.

Also, I am ignorant, please help me:
Who is the person in the white outfit with the orange hair, headphones, and boots?
It's one of the coolest costumes I've ever seen but I have no idea what character it is.

I'm surprised someone even attempted a Tank, and did a pretty decent job to boot.

Yeah the Ariel is pretty damn sexy - I'd let her play with my trident, and other such nautical-themed innuendos.

That guy looks like a cross between Bill from Left 4 Dead and the King from [i]Castle Crashers.

That Zoey looks terrible.

Zoey?!? At least she is acceptable...I don't know whether that is an attempt at "Bill", "Hobo Santa", or some bootleg "Super Grover" (with shaved eye sockets - an even more disturbing concept). And that "Tank"? Well at least I was amused if not awestruck. Actually I like them all, but Bill is by far the funniest, mostly due to the guy's "I am so badass" look. LOL

I looked through the other photos and decided that I don’t think I could attend one of these events. The minute I saw Green Lantern (still laughing) and Wonder Woman (who should have traded costumes with Deadpool – that’s one hell of a body hiding under there – I likes em’ thick), I may very well have offended them with my hysterical guffaws. My favs were Cobra Commander and The Baroness (who was also kinda sexy – but that might have more to do with my childhood crush/budding S&M tendencies regarding the character). Sinister was ok too, but that was because he was standing next to Deadpool (again, that is a bangin’ body hiding under that costume – yes, I am a shameless heterosexual male, but at least I know what I like).

Seems that the real "losers" here are those who'd laugh at people just for doing something they enjoy, and having the guts to do it not just in public, but get photographed knowing they'd be put up in the internet. Some people need to grow up.

Anyway, the event looks like it was a lot of fun. Makes me want to go to some conventions over here in Europe!

Wow, "Lady Deadpool" is pretty hot...well, her figure is anyway. Love the curves, it also doesn't hurt that the spandex is showing off some of her camel toe. :P lol

Laughter is human(even when directed at other humans - see: comedians). Not that you directed that at me, but I think that even these folks understand that someone might find their cosplay humerous and that they may not represent the pinicale of "real life" interpretations of the characters they seek to emulate. Calling us losers for poking good humored fun at cosplay is an example of "you" throwing the first stone.

Sorry, just saw someone refer to them as losers. So I can’t speak for that individual, but what I wrote remains the same for myself. I doubt cosplay fans are thinned skinned. Not taking themselves too seriously seems to come with the territory.
Also: Humorous and pinnacle – spelling has never been a forte of mine. Guess I’m a “spelling loser”. :P

@Gamera.

Don't worry about it. I should have made it clear that my comment was referring to Nitex. I certainly agree with you that most Cosplayers don't take themselves seriously, the ones I've met certainly don't. I too think that Bill's beard is rather funny looking.

I just get mad when I see gamers calling others 'losers' for doing something they enjoy. Especially as I remember well how annoying it was whenever us gamers got called 'losers' by the media, not so long ago.

Agreed. You assholes need to stop being such shallow fucks. "Fat"? "Lard"? Go fuck yourselves. You want to keep chasing the empty-headed Olivia Munn dream, you go right ahead. The rest of us will settle down with someone who's worthwhile.

Actually, I'm amazed at how thin and healthy everyone looks. I'm glad that us geeks are bringing sexy back.
