Over at his Blog, Charles Vess reports on his first viewing of the Stardust movie: Nervous couldn’t half describe how I was feeling at that moment.

Spotlite on…COSPLAY!
A couple of stories that illuminate this sometimes confounding activity. In Hawaii, the deck sums it up: Passive fun isn’t for hard-core anime fans who toil to dress the part and the story digs in: About an hour and a half later, Sasaki says in her gentle voice, “So, anyone want to start on buckles?” […]
