Baltimore Comic-Con Part 5: Big Aquaman Fan, Prince Charming, Cinderella

Fan and Aquaman
In part 5 of the blog about my adventures as Aquaman at the Baltimore Comic-Con I ran into the biggest Aquaman fan at the convention and Prince Charming and Cinderella.

BIG AQUAMAN FAN - A guy stopped me as I was walking down one of the aisles of Comic-Con and he was wearing an Aquaman tee-shirt. He said that he was Aquaman's biggest fan. Then he even showed me an "Aquaman" belt that he was wearing. Of course, we took pictures together. It's always nice to appreciate your fans. :)

PRINCE CHARMING AND CINDERELLA- This handsome couple was walking around when I spotted them. They truly did look like they stepped out of the pages of Cinderella. Their costumes were so well-done.

ORIGIN OF CINDERELLA - DID YOU KNOW?
The first written European version of the story was published in Napoli (Naples) by Giambattista Basile, in his Pentamerone (1634). The story itself was based in the Kingdom of Naples, at that time the most important political and cultural center of Southern Italy and among the most influential capitals in Europe, and written in the Neapolitan dialect. It was later retold, along with other Basile tales, by Charles Perrault in Histoires ou contes du temps passé (1697), and by the Brothers Grimm in their folk tale collection Grimms' Fairy Tales (1812).
