The lights are on
Saturday ended up being my final day at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con. It was a highly enjoyable experience, but also quite exhausting! Now that I've had a moment to recover, I'm delivering my final Comic-Con photo blog.

As always, thank you for taking the time to look through my latest batch of convention photographs! If you weren't able to attend the actual event, I hope that they kind of made you feel like you were there. I unfortunately didn't get to take pictures of everything I wanted to see. A few examples being Darkseid and Power Girl cosplayers that I've seen on various sites, and Sylvester Stallone. Oh well, there's always next year. I'll make sure to order my 2011 passes as soon as possible and try to make better lodging arrangements so I can enjoy all 4 days.
After some deep thought, I do believe I actually prefer Comic-Con ever so slightly to E3. It may not have as much stuff in the gaming department, but it trounced E3 in the swag and cosplay categories, which are usually more important to me. I won't be attending any conventions in August, so stay tuned for my next photo extravaganza covering PAX in September.

Man that looked like it was a blast. I got to go to one of these sometime in my life. Those costumes are awesome, can't imagine some of the stuff that you may have seen.
So many delightfully unexpected costumes there
Great pics, looks like it was a lot of fun.
