Photos & Videos of SDCC Cosplayers

San Diego Comic-Con 2011 is underway. Fans of cult, sci-fi, horror, fantasy, and comics have converged in San Diego. We're keeping a running photo roundup of cosplay: all those fans who dress up as their favorite characters. Check back often, as this story will get plenty of updates.

Be honest: when you search for Comic-Con pictures, you're really searching for cosplay pictures, and that's cool-- it's one of the reasons they do it: it's (almost) as much fun for spectators as it is for the participants. Cosplay can be funny, sexy, interpretive, hyper-realistic, or any combination thereof. Cosplay ideas come from all aspects of sci-fi/fantasy/anime/gaming fandom, and are not limited to comics.

Cosplayers to Look for at San Diego Comic-Con 2011:

  • Power Girl
  • Spider-Man
  • Captain America
  • Stormtroopers
  • Characters from Bleach
  • Darth Vader, Boba Fett
  • Mario & Luigi
  • The Doctor and his companions from Doctor Who
  • Bayonetta
  • Pikachu (you'll be amazed at the variations on this one)
  • Ghostbusters
  • Wonder Woman
  • Generalized steampunk
  • Batman, The Joker, Harley Quinn

Hmm... who are we forgetting... oh, right. Slave Leia.

How Many Slave Leias?

Is anybody walking around with one of those doorman clickers to do a definitive Slave Leia count? Our jelly-bean-jar guess is 472. 472 Slave Leias at SDCC 2011.

You are welcome to add your own SDCC cosplay photos to the gallery below: we're looking for pics from pros and participants alike. This gallery will be updated throughout SDCC 2011. If you're attending, make sure to play Comic-Con Bingo.

First one's not Leia. It's Circe, Wonder Woman's nemesis.Source: www.dcuniverseonline.com/images/wallpapers/circe/circe800.jpg

Duly noted, and fixed. (But why is Circe dressed as Leia?)
