From Spider-Man to The Witcher to Dude Vader, here are the most mind-blowing costumes that invaded San Diego for the 50th Comic-Con.
San Diego Comic-Con 2019 is in full swing, and we're on the hunt for the best cosplay.
I dared to get up close and personal -- despite being a muggle -- with the one who must not be named to show you the details of his face.
Originally published July 18 and will be updated frequently.
You see a lot of Harry Potter cosplay at San Diego Comic-Con but this duo of Bellatrix and Voldemort was very impressive to see in action. Great job, @bellavoldy!
The steampunk meet-up showed off real cosplay talent.
Dude Vader is a San Diego Comic-Con institution. I ran into Dude Vader several times during this year's con, but I was specially thrilled to see his rendition for commemorating the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11.
Take a closer look at that helmet.
Cosplayer Bruce Stedwell (King Leoric) is the talent behind both of these costumes. It took him almost four months to finish them both. To his right is his son, Corey Stedwell.

Just some of the cool details on his costume are the lines on his forearm. Each line represents one thousand kills.
Now that is some great cosplay hair!
Cosplayer @toxicmelon decided to invest more time to finish up her take on Toga Himiko from My Hero Academia. The most challenging part of her costume was the teeth.
