PANGoulême

Hypothetical Question

If, somehow, I found a way to get to the Angoulême International Comics Festival, who should I check out/cosplay as/learn more about/say hi to? I depend on your expert wisdom.

So far, I am leaning towards cosplaying as Seth. I will wear a fedora, round glasses, and an expression of profound, nostalgic melancholy.

    I’ve always wondered why girls can cosplay as male characters, but if a boy cosplays as a female character, it’s humorous. I assume it’s partly because there are less female characters to choose from in fandom, but that doesn’t explain it all.

    I have no suggestions. I don’t read enough comics.

    I’ve seen lots of girls cosplay as boys. Hell, for most Shojo boys, only girls _can_ cosplay as them and look convincing. It’s just that a guy dressed as a sailor scout is always funny, no matter what the context
