Things I saw at Comic-Con 2015
– by Ryan Ingram
Last week was Comic-Con, and I -Â along with 129,999 other suckers people who like to wait in lines -Â took in the overwhelming wonders of San Diego’s annual nerdfest. And it was pretty fun!
I was only there for the first two days though. By the time Hall H was losing its collective mind over a free Star Wars symphony concert, I was already flying home, ready to sleep for a week and recover. But: I still got to see some fun Comic-Con-type things while I was down there, so without further ago, here are Things I saw at Comic-Con 2015.
Let’s start with Star Wars-related cosplay:

Even the local grocery shop gets into the Comic-Con spirit. Here’s a display with a heavy nod to Iron Man’s “Demon In A Bottle” storyline. Ryan Ingram photo.
[Comic-talk sidebar: Have you read Marvel’s summer event series Secret Wars? It’s about a planet where all of Marvel’s weirdest continuity co-exists in Game of Thrones-type realms, and Doom is the god of this planet. It shouldn’t work, but it’s been pretty fun so far. Read it, if you want.]

I thought this guy had pretty convincing Hare Krishna cosplay going. But then he tried to push one of his books on me, so he probably was a real Krishna.
