In my Unofficial Comic-Con Masquerade Ball, this woman took my no-prize for “Most Ambitious Costume.”

Aeon Flux would be a tough character to pull off… if you weren’t willing to walk around with your privates almost completely exposed. Luckily for Comic-Con attendees, she was willing to go the whole nine yards in conveying the character’s diminutive costume.

Truly a Teen Titan. For most of the Con, this girl ran around with friends who were dressed as Raven and (I think) Slade. However, her Starfire costume was clearly superior and the coolest of the bunch, so we took an opportunity to photograph her alone, as she stood in queue for the Comic-Con Masquerade Ball.

Some of my favorite Comic-Con attendees were those who embraced being the Coolest of the Uncool.

Imperial Elvis was one such cat. When asked if I could take his picture, the Stormtrooper/Deathpooper replied, “Sure, baby.”

Another bad-azz was Bobalicious Fett, the Bounty Huntin’ Pimp. When asked if I could take his picture, the bitch-slappin’ Domino replied with utter silence and a fist full of bling.

I think it’s clear that modern toy companies have gone too far with their myriad figure variations.

I’m pretty sure this is French Fries-Gobblin’ Robin (left)… or is it Hamburgler Robin? Anyway, I decided to juxtapose this awesome dude with two random, super-hot Comic-Con chicks (right).

Safe to say: Never the ‘tween shall meet.
