Spider-Man, Stormtroopers and dozens of T-Rex costumes left no corner of pop culture untouched at the annual Dragon Con festivities in Atlanta.
Shaggy and Scooby are naturally a little on edge around the Witch Doctor. Every year on Labor Day weekend thousands, including Shaggy and Scooby, descend on Atlanta for the pop culture extravaganza of cosplay, panel discussions, a parade
down Peachtree Street and the fun that is Dragon Con .
There's no such thing as aliens.
Hold on for dear life.
This is what hip-hop pioneers Run-D.M.C. would look like in the Galactic Empire. Caution: This group makes frequent stops for dance parties.
It's only fitting that Marvel comic book legend Stan Lee served as the parade's grand marshal.
Just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, hitching a ride on the roof of a car.

We didn't see this dino in Jurassic Park.
You can almost hear Darth Vader's theme through this picture.
Dragon Con regulars will instantly
recognize this funky pattern. It belongs to the official host of Dragon Con, the Marriott Marquis's famous carpet. The carpet, designed by Couristan Inc., has served as the inspiration for so many costumes that it has a dedicated parade group. Much to the dismay of Dragon Con
attendees, the host hotel recently changed the carpet. Rumor has it scraps of the carpet sell for a pretty penny on eBay.
Dragon Con seniors send out a warning to their junior attendees.
We thank them for keeping the Dragon Con kingdom safe.

defending the world to stroll through the Dragon Con parade.
Please use extreme caution when high-fiving mutants.
This eerie float hails from Netherworld Haunted House , a top-rated Halloween attraction located just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. It's one of our personal favorites .
This Netherworld Haunted House leaf
creature's fanged grin is equal parts
charming and horrifying.
If you're planning to visit Mr. Gendel's 3D Funhouse of Horrors this fall, you better get over your fear of clowns.
