Hello, Friday. We’ve missed you. Besides being the day before my laziest day of the week, it’s also the day we like to raise a glass to all the cosplayers everywhere. Please join us in saluting the dedicated fans who bring their favorite characters to life with fabric, foam, patience, and hours of intensive labor.

All cosplayers are Jedi Masters in my book, and I love browsing the web to find the sweetest, best, and most creative costumes out there. This week we’ve got Prince Robot IV (with a working TV head!), Yubaba, Iron Giant, and many more.
