It is that time of year when grown men and women as well as children dress up as villains, superheroes, or anything really to receive free candy. Nope, strike that out. This weekend was not Halloween, but actually home to New York Comic Con, a four day convention drawing thousands to New York's Javits Center. It is known as one of the biggest pop culture events on the East Coast. Attendees experience panels, live discussions, screenings, and more on some of their favorite movies, TV shows, and comics, with appearances by directors, producers, writers, and actors who are behind some of their guests most beloved projects. Attendees can also become part of the festivities by dressing up. Take a look at some of the most impressive cosplayers below.
