Comic-Con Recap: Best Costumes
By: Mania Editorial StaffDate: Wednesday, July 30, 2008
The hype and hoopla has passed. Alas, Comic-Con 2008 is over, at least for another 365 days. Luckily for Maniacs who didn’t have a chance to attend, or for those still suffering from convention withdrawal, our editorial staff has thrown together a people watching pictorial rundown of some of this year’s best-clad attendees.
This guy's get-up was meant to be the Joker after years behind Arkham's padded walls. That, or a former Dead Head who ate way too much acid.
The guy behind the guy behind the guy. When not navigating the forest moon of Endor in search of rebel forces and feisty Ewoks, this biker scout maintains an A average in geometry, enjoys his mother's (right) crustless peanut butter and banana sandwiches and does Sideshow Bob impressions during water breaks at weekend LARP gatherings.
The always fashion-forward Destro clearly got an early tip on next season's Elizabeth I vintage hems.
We dug up this photo from Ghost Rider's family album. Little Johnny Blaze sure did grow into his weight. Adolescence can be so awkward.
“Gimp's sleepin’.”
I was pretty sure this Royal Guardsman was going to kick my ass. Thank god he was already running late for the Sarah Conner Chronicles poster signing.
