Cosplay

“We can be heroes, just for one day,” sang David Bowie…
This could be the credo of Abel and Emile, the two main characters of this
comic. Their passion is cosplay: dressing up as a pop-culture character to
participate in big events. That said, never tell a cosplayer that he or she is
“dressing up”… you’ll get yourself in a bit of trouble! Cosplay and merely wearing
a costume are two radically different things. Today is Comic-Kon, and
Abel and Emile will finally be able to show off the costumes they’ve spent
months working on! Abel is Batman and Emile a Jedi Knight. But when they
get there, nothing goes as planned. A whistleblower being followed by armed
men sneaks into the crowd and hides among the participants of the cosplay
contest. The situation quickly escalates and turns into a full-blown hostage
situation! It’s time for real heroes to stand up and be counted if anybody wants
to get out alive. Our teens, with the help of a few new cosplayer friends, will
quickly have to prove themselves worthy of the costumes they are wearing to
save the world!
