Florida Supercon was back last weekend, bringing out comic book, anime, animation, video game, fantasy, and Sci-Fi superfans in geek chick style. Was it just us, or did the convention seem bigger and better-attended that in the past couple years? And out-of-costume attendees were few and far between.

Maybe we're getting soft in our old age, but our favorite part by far was the droves of kids sporting serious fan gear. It just goes to show that no matter your age or their hobby, there's something for everyone at Supercon -- and probably, something to inspire you to dress all freaky, too.

Check out the best costumes we spotted this year.
