San Diego Comic-Con is in full swing — celebrating not just comics, but movies, TV, books, video games and really cool costumes. It's called cosplay: The art and science of dressing up like your favorite character.
And I've got a confession to make. I'm a wannabe cosplayer myself, though without any sewing skills my costumes are a little hacked together. Luckily for me, there are some truly fantastic sights out on the convention floor. Like zombie Teletubbies. An army of Daenerys Targaryens. (Daenerii?) So many Frozen princesses I can't keep track. Classic Star Trek uniforms. Doctors Who, lady Thors and Lokis in gorgeous armor and a truly impressive Silver Surfer in head-to-toe body paint that must have taken him hours.
“ The happy faces and everyone complimenting me on the costume, it's just awesome.
