Love it or hate it, cosplay has exploded at conventions over the last few years and it's now just as much a reason for some people to attend as the vendors and guests are. In fact, there are even 'celebrity cosplayers' showing up at cons these days, putting in special appearances and doing booth signings. So yeah, even if you don't want to dress up for the day, you can't ignore the fact that a whole lot of people do. High fives to Reed Pop for creating a safe and friendly environment for anyone and everyone to do their thing and have fun.
Here's a few shots that show off the variety of costumes that were making the rounds at NYCC 2014.
