Top Cow Wants SDCC Cosplayers in Their Comics

Do you like to dress up? More than just wearing fancy clothes for a night out. Dress up as dress up like a favorite comic book, video game, anime or whatever character. If so, then Top Cow has an offer for you that may really get you even more amped up for SDCC this year. Dressing up as one of Image's iconic characters at the show and stopping by the Top Cow booth (#2629) will get your picture taken to appear in Top Cow books.

“We are trying to do more things that show our appreciation to our very loyal fans,” Siike Donnelly, Top Cow’s new marketing manager, stated. “The goal is to be more inclusive, build a stronger relationship with our fans, old and new. As a former cosplayer myself, I know the work that goes in to creating some of these amazing costumes. It’s a true art form.”

Tens of thousands of cosplayers attend San Diego Comic-Con every year, with hopes of getting their picture taken by people who appreciate their craftsmanship and dedication to comics.

Donnelly continued, “If you cosplay as one of our characters in San Diego, we want to put you in our books as a ‘thank you’ for your hard work and passion for your art.”
