Comic-Con ’08: The Exhibitionists

Now what would a Comic-Con be without the exhibitionists, the fully fledged participants who bring out their inner nerd to fruition? And let me tell you, it was a quite a scene. Among the highlights there people dressed up as Stormtroopers. As Darth Vader. As GI Joe and Indiana Jones.

We also had, no surprise here, many, many Jokers, including one who visited our booth with some real inspiration. Man, he was in character. It was awesome.

And let me tell you, it was a quite a scene. Among the highlights there people dressed up as Stormtroopers. As Darth Vader. As GI Joe and Indiana Jones.

We also had, no surprise here, many, many Jokers, including one who visited our booth with some real inspiration. Man, he was in character. It was awesome. I’ve got a great picture of him in the PHOTOS section.

We also had visits from Hulk, Thor, Spiderman and Superman, a few Batmans, and, here’s a great one — Batbum. I’ve got a good photo of him, too. His sign read: "Will Fight Crime for Food." I thought that was pretty good.

Scattered around we also had some life size Pokeman characters, goblins, elves, sorcerers, Predators, Plastic Man, and a crazy chick who just got her inner beast all decked in orange. Seriously. It was bizarre. (Yep, got a photo of that, too).

And, of course, we had our share of slender ladies in skin-tight costumes of all sorts and varying degrees of cleavage … not that we were looking. (YEAH, RIGHT! Our nerd detectors went off like wildfire!)

So all in all we got the Comic-Con experience, characters in all.

And what a scene it was.
