Cosplay Photos at Comic Con. Enjoy. This was a fun day and it’s not even the big Cosplay day. Photos by myself and Oscar Rios.

San Diego Comic Con Day 2 brought a few more photos. The Conan art show? I guess it’s called: COCO-MoCA Presents: The Fine Art of The Flaming C Fan-Art Exhibit. It’s fan art, but don’t believe it since if wasn’t fan art, there wouldn’t be tons of security guards. The coolest thing is the LEGO statue! More Coco art below in the photo set.
C.S. Lee, signed was on a panel and more for Dexter. He snuck up with a mask on. Yes, he’s popular at Comic Con. I’ve told people, that the folks wearing masks are often stars who are just checking stuff out. His t shirt is a cryptic message. Read it in Korean. Michael Choo.
See more Conan art, friends, artists like James Kochalka, Skinner, Aaron Horkey, Dave Stolte, Miso, Jeffrey Brown, Gene Luen Yang, Carlos Ramos and more below:
The Comic Con has started and I’d like to think it’s a great way to open when Marvel Comics King, Stan Lee is right near your booth with just a tiny mob. He’s talking to Neal Adams in this shot. I can’t tell you who the photo bombers are. On fans, Neal Adams said, “at least they’re nice to us” and Stan Lee said, “they’re not to me”. It wasn’t too long ago when Stan Lee was relatively forgotten by the world, and now with the good remakes of the films (not the weird Fantastic Four, Spiderman TV show, Ang Lee’s Hulk, Punisher, etc) which are now worth billions, he’s back to being known by the masses as Stan the Man – a serious god.
The GR booth features the red lanterns. It’s a beacon. I love hearing, “I’m at the Giant Robot booth.” Yes of course! Look up at the signage, you can’t miss us. I think this is my 18th year in a row attending this convention. The first was in 1993, I’m pretty sure. It’s changed of course especially in size and in scope. The actual comic book dealers seem more and more scarce, and the Hollywood quotient is larger than ever. But this year, what’s the hot promotion? Last year, it seemed like Scott Pilgrim was everywhere, but this year? I’m not quite sure. Maybe it’s just an amalgam of a lot of features and television. We’ll see. Keep updated. We have a lot coming up. This was only preview night.
