The Wildest Looks from Comic-Con 2012

Posted by , on July 16, 2012 at 3:30 pm

Our definition of funky? A bright lime green hat complete with animal ears and green lipstick to match.

We adore a simple shift made completely out of a comic strip.

Sling-shot savvy! While the jeans and wife beater are simple, a gladiator-inspired hat and Wolverine claws put this guy at the top of the crazy scale.

Gang's all here! Nothing screams "comics" like the classic Power Rangers clan.

Robert Downey Jr. gives us the claw with his Iron Man-inspired look from the classic movie series. 

What better way to celebrate Comic Con than a circus look with stripes, strappy sandals and green body paint? 

A full StormTrooper ensemble -- including armor and gloves -- gives this guest a step up over the other event-goers. 

Meow! Catwoman herself made an appearance at Comic Con.

Warrior/gladiator princesses took over the event, their looks complete with knee-high boots, high slits and horns.

Skype superheroes? Never thought we'd see such a thing, but here they are, blue cape and all.

We've never seen a more legit cat costume: shoes in the shape of paws, a long wig, arm-length gloves and fuzzy ears.

We're not really sure what to say about this outfit, but that's not even what grabs our attention -- we're dying over the pink Teletubby!

These wigs remind us of none other than Nicki Minaj. We can't decide which girl looks hotter with green hair ...

Okay, we understand the whole Jesus-esque robe, sash and lamb. Not quite sure where the alligator head dress comes into play but when in Comic-Con ...

Superhero chic! We adore the metallic cape, leather boots and layers. If we were to dress like a superhero, this is what it would look like.

Talk about minimal clothing! Our eyes were definitely drawn to this perfect representation of Princess Leia -- complete with knotted buns, a staff and the most epic 'skirt' we've seen in a while -- [...]

Comic-Con International has once again come to an end, having brought comic book lovers from all over the world to share their passions at the 43rd annual convention in San Diego.

The popular four-day fan fest was hugely successful, attended by numerous special guests and die hard pop-culture fans, often clad in extravagant costumes in tribute of their favorite characters from animated films, video games, and of course, comic books. We’re simply in awe of the amazing effort fans put into their style, taking haute couture to a whole new level. Fans went far beyond donning that old Star Wars T-shirt, opting instead to dress up like the real deal (in complete StormTrooper armor!).

Have a look at our gallery to check out some of the amazing costumes that turned heads at the weekend convention.
