Tens of thousands of attendees, tons of creative cosplayers, three days of fun – Emerald City Comicon 2015 is history but who was crowned the cosplay champion?

Colleague and photographer Josh Lewis of Seattle Refined is like a Nightcrawler/Flash hybrid getting amazing shots of cosplayers all weekend long. I don’t how he does it.

After years of covering ECCC Josh Lewis may be able to predict the future like a mutant. Lewis saw this Thrall and followed him along all day just knowing he would win and sure enough…
