Big Wow Comics Fest 2013:
Cosplay Part 1
Last weekend San Jose threw its annual love letter to the comics industry, the Big Wow! Comics Festival and, if you listen to the podcast, you'll note that we all agree that this is really becoming a show to be reckoned with. Top creators attend (hey, Stan!) and, if you weren't aware, the Silicon Valley is home to a lot of great cosplayers. So let's begin touting them!
Ric got some great shots -- and though I've seen similar things happen at Comic-Con, there's just something ridiculously fun about seeing teams of cosplayers competing at Rock Band. I will never, ever get tired of it. Maybe.
