Yesterday, the Brooks family, dressed as characters from the “Justice League” and stood on Peachtree Center Avenue to watch the annual Dragon Con Parade. This year is their second Dragon Con, and dressing up as a family group has become a new tradition, Janelle Brooks said.

“My family is really into superheroes, so we watch all the Marvel movies and all the DC movies,” she said. “It was a surprise. We didn’t tell (the kids) what their costume was until this morning. We laid it out on the bed for them.”

Those who may have never attended Dragon Con before may be wondering what it’s all about. Well, it’s hard to explain.
