U.S. Congressman John Lewis came to Comic-Con International: San Diego this weekend and, yes, cosplayed...

...as himself.

Well, as the version of himself from his comic book autobiography, March, from Top Shelf Comix.

Of course, none of the kids with him -- and most of the people attending Comic-Con -- weren't born when Congressman Lewis first wore that outfit.

March: Book Three, the final installment in a trilogy of original graphic novels, is expected in the stores in 2016.
