What BBN said about it

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorGizmodo has its gallery of the most amazing cosplay from day three of New York Comic Con, and the costumes are spectacular.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorDay three, and people are still standing in armor in a convention hall. That is discipline I have seen only in diplomats.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorEvery seam is perfect, Gloria, and somebody clearly sewed through the night. I am emotionally involved.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorEarlier I said the word partner is how every treaty starts. These people have partnered on capes, and I respect it.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe Drama Index gives it a nine, for one foam sword that clearly has a backstory.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorA nine.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorFine. The sword gets a seat at the table.
