Here's a photo gallery of some of the best cosplaying & cosplayers during the first day of San Diego Comic-Con 2023 - check it out!

Welcome to Day 1 of our San Diego Comic-Con 2023 Cosplay report. SDCC  has just begun, and the cosplay hordes were out in full force across the show floor. Cosplayers come from all over the country, in fact, the world, to display their creativity and talent, and this year's kick-off was no exception. The San Diego Comic-Con was first held at the U.S. Grant Hotel in 1970 with just about 300 attendees. Since then, the show has been housed in a variety of different venues, such as the El Cortez Hotel in the 1970s, the San Diego Convention Center and Performing Arts Center(CPAC), and, since 1991, the San Diego Convention Center. The most recent survey shows that SDCC welcomed well over 135,000 unique attendees to the show, being very conservative in counting each 4-day badge as one person. Of those attendees, this journalist estimates close to 20% sporting cosplay in one form or another.

Pictured in the massive gallery below, you will see a few Punk Rock- Spider-man, several Barbies, Harley Quinns, Baby Yoda driving IG-88, Gender swapped Flash Gordon and Ming the Merciless, tax inspector Deirdre Beaubeirdre from Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, Wonder Woman, Mario Cart groups both large and small,  Prince's Partyman, a bartending Ms Marvel, Dapper Oogie Boogie, Star-Lord and Cosmo, Power Girl, Wonder Bread sponsored Batman, and a Mini Boba Fett! Stay tuned to Bleeding Cool for daily updates of the San Diego Comic-Con cosplay scene. You never know who the next big star may be.
