I just gotta say... there's too many fat people dressed up in skintight costumes.
Which makes me think there might be good money in creating a superhero with a beer gut.
RUFIO! RUFIO!

Gaaaah! Hate you!
Sorry, that's just the jealousy talking. Thanks for all the fantastic pics, folks! It's a blast seeing what's there and the comments really make some of them. By far, my favorite page was 23. So many favorite characters there! And I can agree on the Monarch costume. Only thing that would've made it better would've been wings, but I can imagine those would have been a bitch to get around with. Great seeing all the steampunk stuff, too. Have a couple friends that like it, so I'll have to share info on the pics.
Every time I read one of these things, it's "Someday, when I win the lottery..." Until then, this is the next best thing! Fab presentation, Rog!

well shit. That was damn good coverage of the comic con. Any chance the left over shirts will make their way onto the store page? On a side note, what kind of nes to usb did you guys use at the booth? I've been looking for one, but don't want it to feel cheap.

Holy CRAP.
Someone actually went as "The White Violin" from Umbrella Academy on page 8! I was planning to do that for halloween. Since I play violin and I'm a comic writer, I could think of no better costume than an outcast violinist that uses her music to kill.
Tell me, though: Was she only holding the violin or did she actually play?

Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans. That was a hell of an impressive collection of photos. I have been waiting for these for a while, seeing as I live in sunny old England, I won't be making my way over to the Comic Con anytime soon, but at least can see your awesome collection of pics RoG (and the rest of the guys).
PS I nearly wet myself laughing at the last picture of the Cobra Comander getting himself some munchies.

You called Jango Fett, Boba Fett in one description. I didn't bother checking which page it was, though, because I want to make you suffer knowing that you have failed as a Star Wars fan.
Also, the last picture was the best. He's dressed just like he was in the cartoon movie! AWESOME

Thanks for all the compliments so far everybody! It took a hell of a long time to put all the photos together, and then myself, Proto & Boogie had to put captions under 'em. Glad you guys are enjoying all the coverage though... all we want to do is give you the next best thing to attending the event, so hopefully it worked!

I used a genuine NES controller combined with a retro usb cable hook up for it. Then I just mapped it to the keys for the game and it worked like a charm. Kudos to BoM for getting the game to work in fullscreen mode so everybody could enjoy it on the flatscreen TV!
As for whether or not the shirts will make their way onto the store page, as I stated in the article itself, EVERYTHING we sold at Comic-Con will be available for purchase on the site at some point in the near future. I just need to revamp the store a bit and figure out the shipping costs for things. But yeah, it'll all be available for purchase on I-Mockery soon.
T-Shirts, Posters, Pickle Hats, Comics, Stickers... the works!

You'd have to ask Proto or Max or whoever took that photo. I would venture to guess that she could play it though.
Was that really Buckethead? :(
I'll say yes... but realistically speaking, anybody could but a KFC bucket on their head and call themselves Buckethead. Especially at Comic-Con.

Sadly, I was not there when that picture of the White Violin was taken, so I'd guess it was either Re or Scott who took that picture. Shame too, because I would have loved to see the costume myself (and discovered whether she played the violin)!

I got a question about this game you guys keep talking about. Is it going to be released on home consoles, or are you going to put it on your website? The reason why i'm asking is because I know you guys have it in you to do what newgrounds is doing with Behemoth.

No, our game is not going to be on home consoles.
We asked Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo and they all turned us down and said we were failures who'll never find true happiness. And they spit on us.

Well that and BoM doesn't do console programming. :picklehat
araretwinkie, I do hope to eventually make some PC / Console games though... I've always wanted to. Would really just need to find a programmer capable of doing it. That and some extra money to invest into a dev kit for one o' the consoles. Those things ain't cheap ya know. If we were to do that though, I'd want to do a completely original game (like our Trick-Or-Treat Adventure Quest (http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/trickortreat-adventure-quest/default.php) game) instead of a parody one like the Abobo one we're currently working on. Abobo will be EPIC though... and free for everybody to play.
Aimless, hehe yeah that kit is great. I always mean to buy it every time I see it at Comic-Con, but come Sunday I forget to pick it up from that booth. Guess I'll just have to eBay it.

Heheh believe me, we still had plenty of blurry ones and ones where other people were in the way. But we took an absurd amount of photos at the convention, so we had plenty o' perfectly usable ones as well. Glad ya enjoyed it!

Nah, that's no ripoff. A lot of sites cover weird pop culture artifacts... we just happen to do a whole bunch of other stuff too heheh. :picklehat Just as The Leader said, they've been around only a few years less than us. I even helped them make some menus 'n stuff back in the day.
Cool pics; I've never been to any -con in my life, but plan to at some point. Thanks for reminding me why.
Well this is definitely THE one to go to if you ask me. It pretty much has something for everyone. Movies, games, toys, comics, art, costumes, collectibles and a hell of a lot more. It's all there... and San Diego is a great city to hangout in for a convention. Really clean, right on the water and the weather is always great.

Did Kaiju Big Battel do a show, or was there just a booth? KBB is fucking amazing. Just look at one of their stars, Call-Me-KEVIN.

I saw a match between three KBB guys and three guys from this fed called CHIKARA, where the CHIKARA guys won by pouring tartar sauce on the sea monsters from KBB.

Dommin, I didn't see them doing a show (doubt they'd have room for that in a little booth heheh), but yeah I always stop by their booth every year. You just can't go wrong with the combination of monsters and wrestling.

I wish I could go to Comic-Con. In case you guys don't know me, you probably already do, and if you do, I'm so sorry for anything I did to upset you. I live in Australia so we have Supernova instead of Comic-Con, and I haven't been to a Supernova or even SMASH anime fair in years because those things are always on when I've had to study.
Protoclown and you guys are always awesome, but sometimes I'm bewildered when I'm unfamiliar with 1980s franchises like Masters of the Universe and G.I. Joe. Not that those things aren't bad, I just feel... unfamiliar with them, since I never even saw G.I. Joe to this very day. In Australia it's different to America because we're so isolated from the rest of the world here, and we don't get access to limited edition toys and collectables as easy. Call it tyranny of distance if you will.

Nariko from Heavenly Sword, Demyx from Kingdom Hearts II, Zero from Code Geass, Jam Kuradoberi from Guilty Gear, Raz from Psychonauts...damn, wish I could have made it to the Comic-Con. Especially so I could go to that Richard cosplayer and call him "dick."

Hehe, you should've seen them on the beach when they first saw how that photo looked on the camera. Proto alone was practically in tears he was laughing so hard at it. We took so many of those photos... who knew running away from waves in the middle of the night could be so much fun?

So, was it one person responsible for all the ass-pictures? Or did more than one of you fail to resist the siren lure of cosplaying buttcheeks? :P
Great photo spread, though, either way. It's too bad you can't get videos of some of the cosplayers who acted in character in addition to looking in character, like your Jack Sparrow friend. :P

Good photos, funny captions. I few too many ass-shots for my taste, but there was probably little choice at a comic con. Seriously, though: 28 PAGES?? There is seriously something wrong with everyone at this sire (and I mean that in the nicest way possible).
