The most common question I get from non-Convention goers is: "What are you going to dress up as?"
Now, I haven't ever dressed up.  I go to the 'Con more as a consumer than as part of the environment, so my answer is always "No," which is then greeted by the looks of disappointment like I may be missing out on something.
... but that will change next year ;-) ...
What this tells me, though, is that the greatest impression that anyone has of the San Diego Comic Con is that people dress up and that there are awesome and crazy costumes all over the place.  This is something that I cannot deny and have tried to get good photos of the more interesting costumes I've seen.
This year, the costumes were amazing, as usual, but akin to my user-error on my camcorder for the video segments of the 'Con, many of the photos I thought I had were lost.
Nevertheless, I've managed to cull a good assortment of the amazing costumes and people from the photos and videos I did get.
Without further ado, here're my collection of photos from this year's San Diego Comic Con.  Hope you enjoy!:
