Comic-Con 2008 Costume Gallery – Days 2 and 3, Part 2

By Great White Snark | July 28, 2008

The blame for the worldwide spandex and leather shortage can be placed squarely on the 2008 San Diego Comic-Con. Photographic evidence from the SDCC to follow.

Iron Man Costume

Black Queen Costume
Check this out…a hot lady in costume at Comic-Con who wasn’t paid to be there.

Black Queen Costume
About three seconds west of a brief nipple slip. Exciting, I know.

X-Men Costume
X-Men, the awkward teen years.

Spider-Man Costume
Spider-Man, with 87 points of articulation.

Spider-Man Costume
Spider-Man, his nemeses, and his mini-me.

Captain America, Iron Woman Costume
Because what’s a strong, female character without six-inch heels?

Comic-Con Marvel Costume Contest

Sandman Costume
No, I cannot scratch your back.

Venom Costume
In case you’re wondering, Venom was enjoying a plateful of french fries.

Silver Sable Costume

Tuscan Raider Costume
Dancing, not attacking. I know, easy to confuse.


RSS and e-mail subscribers, visit the post to see the video.

Maxim Costume

The Crow Costume
The Crow doing “sad clown.”

Bender Costume

Comic-Con Cosplay
I always wanted to be in a gang of stewardesses when I was a small Asian girl, too.

Comic-Con Cosplay
I’m pretty sure this is from Super Mario Bros, but since I’m not sure, I’m calling it Naruto.

Comic-Con Booth Babes

Sarah Connor Costume
Happiest. Sarah Connor. Ever.

T-1000 Terminator Costume

Batman, Robin, Catwoman Costume

Ghostbusters Booth Babes at Comic-Con
It’s no Slave Leia twins, but I’ll take it.

Mortal Kombat Costume

Comic-Con Costumes
The only thing this scene is missing is a Hello Kitty backpack.

Imperial Guard, Jawa Costume
I don’t know if you know this… but Jawas don’t actually hang out with Imperial Guards. Which makes this awesome.

Rogue Costume
This is Rogue from the X-Men. Since I suspect that might have been unclear.

White Queen Costume
The White Queen looks like she’s about to grant me a wish.

Wolverine Costume

Mr Sinister Costume
Mr. Somewhat Sinister.

Psylocke Costume

Weapon X Costume

Mr Fantastic Costume
I haven’t seen a look that cheesy on Mr. Fantastic since the dance scene in Fantastic Four 2.

She-Hulk Costume

      Nice pics – it’s always very cool to see what costumes people come up with. :D

      How “sad” is it that I can pretty much ID all these costumes on the first guess – even the Vampire Knight “stewardesses” (students, actually)… I knew I was a geek, I didn’t think it was this bad. LOL!

      You make wish the comic con would never end, just so I can keep coming back here for more photos with your commentary. The dance vid was hysterical!

      It’s a good thing you told me the… ah, large lady in the green-and-white was Rogue. My first guess was – I’m not kidding – a female version of Charles Dickens’ Ghost of Christmas Present.

      I’m pretty sure the grinning purple-skinned one with the cape, sword and nice hat is one of the Jagermonsters from Girl Genius.
