Of all the wonders on display at San Diego Comic Con there's one thing that you cannot avoid: the amazing cosplay! Everywhere you turn, there's either a Groot, a Tony Stark, or a Superman. I'm frankly astonished at how they can carry out their fandom duties in this sweltering heat. But hey, a little sweat never hurt anyone, right? Click on for some of the best cosplay we spotted at SDCC 2017. Who knows? You might see yourself...
