The Horrors of Nerd-Prom

My buddy Lonny & I went to the NYC Comicon this weekend. We managed to get into a packed Q&A session with Grant Morrison, which was pretty great. Naturally, I took pictures of the costumed freakery for you people. Enjoy:

The panel discussion to use room E08 after the VERTIGO panel we sat in on was about
"Gothic Lolita" costumes. It's not nineteenth century Jon Benet-itus. It's called "Gothic." "Lolita."



Ray and Catwoman, together at last


You might be surprised how often The Batman has need of a mini-Maglite


Who doesn't need a really sweet steampunk pistol?


They managed to replicate in resin how our generation *remembers* Carrie Fischer


Adamantium skeleton and super-healing,
completely un-manned by a purple merch bag


No, I haven't seen any Bothan spies around here, please turn that thing off


Dr. Jones knows the difference between leprosy and really, really bad psoriasis


Somehow Lonny sensed the mortal danger he was in



Before the NYC Comicon, wearing skin-tight leather in public
usually was an indicator of your promiscuity. Within the
confines of the Javitt Center, skin-tight leather and promiscuity
enjoy no correlation whatsoever
