Cosplay is an integral part to any comic convention. But what is it? For the purposes of this article, cosplaying is dressing up in a costume. It’s as simple as that. This can encompass all sorts of mediums from gaming to anime to movies to TV and, you guessed it, comic books.
But why do you have to do it before you die? Glad you asked.
Ever since you were a kid, the second a blanket finds itself draped from your shoulders, it’s practically reflex to outstretch your arms in front of you with fists clenched while making that woosh noise with your mouth. Being in costume activates the imagination center of your brain so that you can’t help but channel your favorite hero or villain, whether they be Superman, Loki, or The Shadow. It’s hard to have the Bat-cowl on and not don a serious expression, or wear that signature purple coat without feeling the need to act a little crazy. Dressing up as a comic book character at a convention allows you to break loose and have fun, pure and simple.
