New York Comic Con is upon us and that means cosplay gone crazy. With 151,000 attendees in 2014 making it the most highly attended comic con in the country we saw a plethora of amazing hand made costumes ranging from TV shows to esoteric comic book characters. Joker and Harley Quinn were among the the most popular couple costume ideas with Deadpool being a close second (we're running a separate gallery of Deadpools... yeah there were that many).

Parents got their kids into the mix, even some that were barely able to walk - look for the adorable Sailor Moon in the gallery. Cosplayers also kicked up the bar on makeup - the fake scars and zombie makeup was stunning to say the least. We'll add more from the first night later - so keep checking back!
