Best moment of the con.
I’m standing in the Marvel/Activision booth with my nephew and a friend when all of a sudden, the guy wearing this Aquaman outfit (big thanks to Jonah at CBR for the pic) comes tearing out of nowhere, running as fast as he can through the con floor late on Friday afternoon, screaming at the top of his lungs - “I’M AQUAMAN!!! I AM THE GREATEST SUPERHERO EVER!!!! WHOOOOO!!!!! YEAH!!! I’M AQUAMAN!!!!!!”
Security is yelling at him to stop running, so he just hangs a sharp left and tears shit up as he heads right back to the center of the floor as the dumbass Elite security guys try to triangulate him with their earpieces like they’re the freaking Secret Service instead of virtually unemployable wannabes.
Cracked us all the frig up, and I really wish I had a video camera, because it was easily the most entertaining thing we saw all weekend. Well, that and the booth trying to sell their Aquaman figure with this bit of creative marketing.

that is simultaneously the funnest and lamest Aquaman costume I have ever seen.

Thats real funny that you say that cause if it wasnt for us security then 90% of you guys would had either been robbed or worse so screw you.
