29 awesome cosplay shots from this year's Vancouver Fan Expo (PHOTOS)

A pop-culture extravaganza featuring the best comics, sci-fi, horror, anime, and gaming all under one roof took during the Fan Expo Vancouver this weekend.

Attendees got to meet their on-screen heroes in-person, purchase geeky goods, attend a insightful panels, and, of course, strategically walk around people taking photos of all the awesome cosplayers.

While the convention has a myriad of reasons to make fans happy, Fan Expo Vancouver continues to be about hanging out with friends and strangers alike, all during the city’s largest geek and pop culture gathering.

In case you missed it, here are 29 awesome shots from this year’s Fan Expo.
