NYCC: Having Fun While Shuffling Along
You can get stuck behind some pretty interesting characters at a comics convention. In any row, aisle, pathway, stairway, elevator, or display, the odds are good you’ll be going in the same direction as someone else for a little while.
I accepted that fact this year at New York Comic Con and made a photo project out of it. Nothing fancy, just quick cell phone pics as I walked. In other words, lots of blurriness.
Here, then, are some of the people I walked behind for a while:
I’m not sure what I was walking behind here, to be honest. Looks like something out of a bad Jim Balent nightmare.
Belle not only likes to read, but she likes to shop for graphic tees.
Trying to decide if that’s a Pokemon Go hunter cosplaying in the lower right corner, or just that guy’s particular fashion sense. A lot of that happens at any comic convention.
Oh, and there I was, walking behind the one and only Squirrel Girl.
Rob Liefeld couldn’t make the convention on Sunday, so I assume this was Cable representing, instead.
Not comics, I know, but there was an adaptation once. That’s Arthur Dent from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, which means it’s awesome! (I’m assuming this is a cosplay of the version of the character from the original tv series or book, and not the most recent movie..)
