The Cosplayers

My world spins out of control as I tumble wildly into the darkness. Suddenly I hit a cold metal table and light seems to return to the world. I get up from the table and happily realize I'm still at Comic-Con inside a perfect replica of The Watchtower's conference room surrounded by cos-players in a group costume for The Justice League. 

I walk up to the team's Batman, genuinely amazed with the detailing on his costume, and say "Well you aren't Dick or Terri so you must be Bruce. Nice I love the detail on your costume, but I always preferred The Dark Knight version." Batman immediately glares at me and Bat-growls "How do you know my name!!!" I mentally shriek "OMG roleplay!" But I force myself to be chill. I can't stick around or I won't get my comic book signed by Stan Lee. So I smirk and compliment "Wow you can even do the voice!

I complain loudly to the group, "Why did you pick John Stewart. The fanboys hate him for replacing Hal. But still at least he's not Guy Gardner!" I shove past the bewildered GL and stumble into The Flash still laughing from the Gardner joke. He stares for a second before I realize he's the only member I haven't addressed yet. So I patronize "You obviously aren't Jay Garrick, so you have to be Barry or Wally." He looks shocked and then asks "Who's Wally?" "Barry Allen it is!" I say triumphantly.

I spin towards the exit again to finally get to my panel on time, but I spot Superman and mutter "Oh great the big blue boy-scout arrives". Running my eyes down his picture perfect costume my eyes widen in shock when I find his feet hovering six inches off the ground and then everything fades to black with this last thought, "What the fuc.......
