Imagine the set up.

You're a young boy, at a convention. You get sidetracked and when you turn around, your Dad's gone.

But wait! Help is at hand!

Who you gonna ask?

I've always been amazed by the friendliness of conventions. This picture confirms it: that and the power of belief, in that when the chips are down, you CAN rely (on some occasions) on super-heroes.

Made me smile: thought I should share.

I'm going to WorldCon in a few weeks. I'll tell her you were thinking of her.

Well the Flash should be able to run around the convention and find them in a heart beat.

:D :D :D

I thought The Flash was really cool until Spiderman came along. I think I bought the very first Spiderman comic. Didn't save it of course.

That kid's dad has serious problems if he wandered away when that Wonder Woman was so nearby.

A boy that age? He'd ask The Flash.

As a mother trying to locate one of my children, prosaically, I always asked security.

Agreed. She's very purty, and perhaps even of a more "Amazonian" build than many Wonder Woman cosplayers I've seen.

I've seen this posted on a few sites recently, and I think it's great that they stayed so calm, but I've also heard they did it in character, so that's even better!

ComicCon, the only place where seeing your small child with an adult man in a red costume does not create instant panic, but instead causes you to reach for your camera. :)

Can I be your brother?

:cool:

Nice pic Hobbit, never been to any of these conventions, but hey, things can change, right?

Sfinx.
