They were followed by a troupe of mournful vampires, a couple of Spider-Mans, Aeon Flux, Superman, a fleet of Klingons on motorcycles, a mass of Harry Potters, assorted characters from Babylon 5 and of course an entire phalanx of stormtroopers marching more or less in formation behind a gaggle of Princess Leias.

I really haven't had time to write up my own comments from DragonCon, but it was a really excellent weekend.

Its where the dreamers meet, and you can grasp onto outlandish ideas that will one day be considered everyday things.
