These amazing custom steampunk style costumes had everybody's full attention.
A young Indiana Jones hitches a ride on a quest for the holy bathroom.
It's a trap!
Life-sized Castle Crashers statue. I didn't want to touch it... I wanted to HUG it.
Morrigan fromn Darkstalkers was driving people batty.
Perhaps the largest gathering of costumed Capcom characters ever?
FINALLY, somebody dresses up as a Ghostbuster with a real Slime Pack instead of the standard Proton Packs!
I wonder if they're in the new Ghostbusters video game. If so, I'm sure it's gonna sell a lot more copies.
Yet another Joker and I think that's Poison Ivy with him... sans foliage.
I have but one thing to say about this duo: YES!
Say, what's a pretty dame like you doing in a run-down joint like this? Moe, a malt for the classy lady, please.
Sorry, there's not much snow around these parts...
Two kinds of mutants, Turtles and X-Men, together at long last!
And let's not forget this blood-soaked mutant either. Wolverine doesn't get much better than this!
Characters, good and bad, all come together for some laughs at the San Diego Comic-Con.
If her wide-eyed stare doesn't pierce you, her blades surely will.
Hey toots, I'll letcha know if I see Tarzan.
Helen Slater was kind enough to grace the Comic-Con with her presence!
This guy kept taking off his mask because he was sweating like hell in it.
Go buy his video game so all that suffering wasn't in vain.
Stephen Colbert probably owns every one of these.
I really wanted this tiny Kubrick Batman Bear and Batmobile, but $35 this is not worth.
There are still many more

Awesome pics RoG, really nice work. Glad to see some of the costumes I missed (though I could've done without that one Wonder Woman's ass. She was hovering by the Slave Labor Graphics booth when I was stuck in line, and it wasn't pretty to look). And massive kudos for finding the two really awesome Jokers amidst a sea of them (I think that Nurse one was also the one carrying the pencil around, extra points there). But where's the shot of the giant GIR costume?
compare http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:DrMrsTheMonarch.jpg
too much manboob and too many oddly unnattractive freaks though.
Not like they are ugly people,because I'm sure they'd look fine in their regular clothing,
but the sort of people who shouldnt dress up as something they cant pull off.
and a few of those pictures might earn you a spot on a predator list. =P
SO yeah, agenda is currently: Get a dog, buy a pump, go to Comic-Con '09.
Hey, I think Nick has a nifty idea for you. Ever thought about creating a Pickleman costume for yourself and maul people with a giant pickle at the con?
You have a very difficult life going to these things as a business expense don't you.
I wish I could've gone. Alas, it's a pipe dream.
Look interesting though. Just a little too crowded for my taste.
And as for the other mystery, (http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/comic-con08/276.jpg) The one with horns looks like a Yuna Berserker from Final Fantasy X-2, but I've got no idea on the maid.
PS - Rog, you still suck for being able to go and I didn't, but awsome pics, man! Loved looking at them all!
Also, RoG, the chick with the green hair in that one G.I.JOE pic is Zartan's daughter. She's in the comics only. So don't worry, it wasn't a really bad Baroness or anything.
My favorite pic this year is definitely the Stormtrooper and the little kid Spider-Man. That fucking rules.
I really hope I can make it out there for next year's con.

And thanks for clearing up about Zartan's daughter. I was afraid, myself, that it was a poor Baroness cosplay, and then it was "Wait, Zartan had a daughter?!"
Second on the favorite photo and second on the "hope to be there next year" but unfortunately, I shall have to likely have to continue living vicariously through Rog's photo galleries.
Also, I had a friend tell me about the Yu Gi Oh thing a while ago. I stopped playing a while ago because it just got so stupid. Now, in the show, they play on those duel-runner motorcycle things. THEY PLAY CARDS WHILE RACING ON MOTORCYCLES.
As always the designer toy photos were awesome, I ought to get me some of those.
Secondly, you should have brought a bunch of bananas for Kevin Spacey so he can recreate that scene from K-PAX.
