Or the cosplay scene at Megacon 2014

I heard the cosplay scene was huge at this show. I wasn't disappointed. However, I've noticed it grow at these types of ComiCons. In other words, I'm not talking about pop culture events. Megacon had the right amount of artists, sales booths, and media stars to keep me happy.

Yes, I was busy running around with BagoFleas and it might seem like it was very amiable by all his recent journal entries, but you must remember he is a relentless task master. I am honored he tells you how much help I was, and yet he omitted how he threatened me, by informing me, if he didn't get everything done my cat would suffer. Alas, I digress and I feel his fleas closing in.

The other thing I like to do at a con is snap pictures of those dressed as my favorite characters. Some of which I like to see are Death from Vertigo comics, Harley Quinn from DC Comics, and Rogue from Marvel Comics. Occasionally, I get to see those rare cosplay characters in the form of my favorites. My first Wizard World in 2007 (when it was still a ComiCon) had me find Beaker walking around separated from Dr. Bunsen Honeydew. I gladly asked to have a picture taken of both of us.

I did find a Beaker this year and posed with the Muppet, but I found something rarer, something akin to a 9.9 signature series book. I found the most underrated character in all the Marvel Universe, a character even more infamous than Doctor Doom.

That's right I am talking about Forbush Man. This janitorial hero scorched through the scene at Marvel comics beginning in the late sixties. His origin aptly detailed in Not Brand Ecch #1 probably insinuates that the popular drug scene influenced this at "Marble Comics". I never thought I would see a cosplay of this calibre, or of this character and as Bagofleas was rushing back to the CGC booth with witness in hand I paused to snap a photo with my idol.
