The New York Comic Con 2012 Cosplay Gallery

This article is over 12 years old and may contain outdated information

Come see the best Cosplay we spotted at New York Comic Con 2012!

As convention cosplay goes, the Comic Cons attract some of the best costumers around. This year’s New York Comic Con over the last weekend was no different. From everyone’s favorite Marvel and DC characters to lesser known figures like the Phantom of the Opera, the cosplayers strutted their stuff inside the Javits Center. The Escapist had crack reporter Marshall Honorof on the scene to snap as many shots of cosplayers as he could.

Here’s the best costumes he saw over the whole weekend. Share and enjoy all of the cosplay love!
