Another year and im once again thrust into the wonderful world of wacky cosplayers and incredible artists. Only my second time here and the New York Comic Con is quickly becoming one of my favorite events in the city. These people cast aside their socially accepted shell and welcome their alter egos for three days of pop and geek culture.

Expressing my love of profiles, but more than anything is the eyes that I want to highlight. Some of these people have their own websites, so whenever possible i'm linking to their work.

Charles Battersby - This is what I considered the most complete original cosplay I saw. It's a shame so many details got lost in my style of photography, but I was very impressed by how natural everything seemed.
