They came from Miami, from Jacksonville, from Nebraska and beyond. Thousands of pop culture fans descended on the Miami Convention Center Saturday for the 2024 Florida Supercon for panels, games and parties, cosplaying their favorite characters from movies, television, anime, manga and video games.
We saw Boba Fett and Pikachu. We saw aliens and demons. We saw Doctors and Weeping Angels, more than you might expect, but then again, the big celebrity on site was David Tennant of “Doctor Who” fame, who drew a full ballroom’s worth of fans. (There were quite a few Aziraphales and Crowleys from his other series “Good Omens,” too).
Here are some of our favorite costumes from the comic con, which continues Sunday at 10 a.m. through 5 p.m.
