Gender-Bender Dr. Horrible and Captain Hammer!

Aren't they great? One of my favorite cosplay acts of Comic Con, and I really respect how well they did with a short time frame to plan the costumes. I don't know the dev identities of these awesome women, but I raise my glass to them. Joss Whedon should have tried at least a little to reverse gender tropes in comics, but where he fails, fans will provide.

Edit: Secret Identities Revealed!

Oh, dude, that's awesome. I'm so envious; if I didn't live all the way over in Maine, I'd SO go to ComicCon...

It was pretty fun; I highly recommend attending if you're ever visiting!

She is all heroic and stuff and rides around the desert on a black horse. She wears black desert clothes, filmy and airy, but utilitarian. Also there are gold bits, and it's always breezy.

Dayum! They're good! Dr. Horrible's glasses look pretty authentic.

Was there a lot of Dr. Horrible fan support out there? It deserves a huge fanbase.

I noticed the goggles too-- how did she FIND them? Unless maybe they're very generic goggles anyway; the show was made on a budget after all.

There were thousands going in for the Dr.H panel. I only saw a handful in cosplay-- only 3 Dr. Horribles and maybe 4 or 5 Captain Hammers. I did see a lot of people with Hammer t-shirts; the Browncoats booth was selling them until they ran out.

HEY! That's me! err... I mean... Captain Hammer is here to save the day!

We had a blast hamming it up at Comic Con. Thanks for the kind words!
