Cosplayer Problems...
I'm thinking this might become a series...
First up: "Humor Fails"
Artist's notes:
This is something that actually happened to a friend of mine at SDCC.
The ONLY reason that Jedi Dude didn't receive a beatdown from the guys in our group was because they were fairly certain that Jedi Dude had some sort of...."mental problem".
The moral of the comic is this: Conversing with cosplayers is fine. But it isn't cool to make comments/jokes/whatever about the cosplayer's race when you do not know them personally (and therefore don't know how they would take a joke like that). And, when in doubt, just politely ask for a photo, give them a thumbs up, and leave them the heck alone.
Second Comic: "Overzealous Vendors"
Some booth vendors at the cons just can't take a hint...
I know this is more of a general convention problem than a specific "cosplayer problem". But the idea came to me and I just rolled with it. Also, this happened to me while I was in costume; so it counts! XD
