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.


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

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

X-Men, the awkward teen years.

Spider-Man, with 87 points of articulation.

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

Because what’s a strong, female character without six-inch heels?


No, I cannot scratch your back.

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


Dancing, not attacking. I know, easy to confuse.

The Crow doing “sad clown.”


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

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


Happiest. Sarah Connor. Ever.



It’s no Slave Leia twins, but I’ll take it.


The only thing this scene is missing is a Hello Kitty backpack.

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

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

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


Mr. Somewhat Sinister.



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

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.
