[Cosplay Photos] FAN EXPO Chicago – Friday (Pt. 1)

Friday started out gloomy and wet for Fan Expo Chicago. Which meant a lot of cosplayers were scurrying to escape the rain before their cosplays got wet.

There was a lot more on-site today, which means that Saturday could make for a full show floor. I don’t know if we will be able to move as the aisles are narrow and the vendors packed.

This time we were accompanied by Obi-Wan Kenobi (aka Laird of Cosplay) and Crona with Ragnarok. That kid is really depressing, but he did cheer up briefly when he got a tea from Chocolate Moonshine Co.

Today, I made it to the red carpet showcase and managed to get a lot of photos, so hopefully you enjoy part 1 of the Friday Cosplay photos.
