Costume Design Fun-Times

Well, many of you know I was at all four days of Comicpalooza! this year, and I was in costume all four days.  I had a good deal of fun, helped a friend sell enough stuff for her to more than break even on her trip here from Rhode Island, and I confused a great many people because the costumes I wore the first three days were not specific to any particular comic book.  My favorite of the three was a remix of last year’s Ren Fest dragonrider costume.  When people asked what I was supposed to be, I replied “Prepared,” but really, I was a time traveler who wasn’t entirely sure when I’d landed.  “Um… anybody seen a newspaper around here?”  I thought it would be fun to share:

Tada!  I really enjoyed wearing this all day, largely because it was really quite comfortable, and the satchel had lots of space for comic-related schwag.  Three cheers for pulling from costume storage (an age-old theatrical tradition).  -E.G.D.
