    The worst Batman cosplayer I saw at the Con had such a gut that the fabric over his stomach was stretched so that you could almost see through it. Also, the belly had a lot of food stains. :x

    That was actually Adam West. He wandered into the exhibit hall through one of the doors where security was a bit lax.

    What really cracked me up this year is that there were a couple heavier guys who would make costumes that had fake muscles OVER that. The end result was like that one really awful picture of Captain America where his side picture was huge.

    We need to sit a bit closer to the mic next time for more heckling.

    Seriously, the questions at Sunday's panels were pathetic.

    Edit - Redi: I think that Spidey costume actually looks decent.

    I like the costumes with the muscles already painted on. It lets you know where they would be if a cosplayer ever hit a gym.

    Most panels are really weird about what they will and will not give away. For example, the 4400 panel gave away major plot twists for the next three months worth of episodes and then had a Q&A session where they connected them all together.

    Then with the DC panel you had people asking questions like "Will Batman and The Punisher ever fight?"

    GOD.

    i hate panels

    because you have joke questions which get joke answers

    you have story questions which get joke answers, which piss me off. i'd much rather have a "that's part of the story, wait and see" answer than "lol maybe it's a skrull" answer

    then you have the serious questions that get joke answers (like, "why didn't batman put up a memorial to stephanie brown", which has no bearing on any story)

    they're basically completely fucking pointless

    in some sort of

    Let's say that this is the hallway next to the room with the futurama panel |

    And let's say each - represents a line of people going all the way down that hallway and back up.

    We went to the Penny Arcade Panel instead >_>

    Unfortunately, that person seemed pretty serious about that matchup.

    It made me want to get up and ask if Batman's costume is bulletproof (Because that's, like, the only thing he ever has to face)

    basically the only serious answers they give at panels are "what character would you like to work on that you haven't yet" but there's still always one person that gives a stupid joke answer
