A new app has arrived just in time for the spring comic con season in Texas. Cosmunity is a new site (and accompanying mobile app) that allows people to take their cosplay capabilities to the next level. It is a unique experience that blends social networking, marketing, and allows followers to stay informed about related upcoming events.

This is no April Fools’ joke; it is about time to dust off those cosplay outfits and reserve your tickets to Fan Expo Dallas.
