Tucson Comic Con: The Lone Ranger & Tonto Cosplay

Happy Thanksgiving!  What better way to celebrate than acknowledging one of the first Native American partnerships in pop culture -- the Lone Ranger and Tonto!  

Ironically, these guys were not together at the Tucson Comic Con, but I was fortunate enough to catch them both swinging by my table, and it's a pleasure to partner them here in photo form.  "Mr. Reid" was bummed that he couldn't find any Lone Ranger memorabilia on the con floor, so I had the honor of sketching him a keepsake of the cowboy hero . . . one of the many reasons I was thankful for Tucson Comic Con this year.

Now, hi-yo, turkey dinner -- awaaaaay!

Tucson Comic Con: Lone Ranger vs. Doc Ock Cosplay!

I'll post a few pictures from Tucson Comic Con over the next few weeks, and I just had to start with my favorite.  Here's a precious moment captured from my table's POV: the foreground, a steampunk couple is meeting the Lone Ranger, which is innocent enough . . . but in the background, a naughty Dr. Octopus is standing a little too close to the ladies' restroom.  Just one of those moments you'd only see at a comic con.
