Today, I can finally say I've crossed something important off my bucket list. Among the highest items on my list (right up there with getting a date from Jennifer Lawrence) was to attend the New York Comic Con. For the past few years, a lot of things kept me from doing so and not all of them have to do with being too hung over. This year, I didn't let anything get in my way. No hangovers. No ex-girlfriends. No parking tickets. Nothing. This year, I went to New York and attended the comic con. And it was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. I had so much fun. I met so many people. It was truly an amazing experience
Below, are just a few of the pictures I took to savor the experience. It's only a fraction of the awesome shit I saw at this place. I hope to see much more next year!
 |
It was a long walk to the Javitz Center. Felt like entering the opposite of Mount Mordor. |
 |
Waiting outside. Actually much more crowded than it looks. |
 |
Batfleck's armor. Couldn't protect him from divorce though. |
 |
The first pic I took when I entered. I had SUCH an erection! |
 |
Naturally, Star Wars was a big deal. And this got everyone's attention. |
 |
Is the Hulkbuster supposed to look that cute? |
 |
Iron Man was on display at Marvel's booth. Thank you Robert Downy Jr.! |
 |
Silk is adapting to life outside the bunker very well. |
 |
Wonder Woman's movie costume. Can't imagine how awesome it looked on Gal. |
 |
I bet I could fit into that costume. It would look goofy. I wouldn't care. |
 |
Love seeing Batgirl represented. Can't have too many awesome redheads! |
 |
Me at the Star Wars fandom panel. Lots of Stormtroopers. Not enough Slave Leias. |
 |
Stan Lee dropped by. How nice of him! |
 |
Some things are untouchable, no matter what Marvel does to fuck them up. |
 |
X-23 is a popular costume. Can't wait to see her in Wolverine's classic duds. |
 |
The Mario Brothers must have found a warp tube. |
 |
One of MANY Spider-Gwens. |
 |
Slave Leias. The only thing that makes me wish I were a fat slug. |
 |
Marvel might not like them, but some couples endure like the Phoenix. |
 |
So many Wonder Women. So many wonders to explore. |
 |
How the fuck does he see where he's going? |
 |
That's Yoda made out of jelly beans. Nuff said! |
 |
Proof binge-watching can foster creativity! |
 |
Anyone up for some Blitzball? |
 |
Lots of art. Not all of it NSFW. Much of it still awesome. |
 |
Jubilee was well-represented, as she should with a movie coming out. |
 |
Jim Shooter holding up my copy of Uncanny X-men #137. I almost fainted. |
 |
Chris Claremont holding up my copy of Uncanny X-men #137. I did faint. |
 |
Perfect Kingpin cos-player. Almost gave him my wallet out of intimidation. |
 |
She-Devil with a sword and sexy costume. |
 |
One of a few Jedi. Were many more Sith. |
 |
Movie magic in action, minus the bullshit CGI. |
 |
Darth Vader made of jelly beans. Nuff said! |
 |
The crowded line into artist ally. |
 |
A true example of BFFs. |
 |
Black Widow may not have a movie, but she has awesome cos-players. |
 |
Squirrel Girl adding some cuddly ambiance to Comic Con. |
 |
Don't know what the teddy bear was for. Was too in awe to ask. |
 |
Boba Fett always attracts a crowd. |
 |
Unless you saw cartoons in the 90s, this was creepy as fuck. |
 |
I salute you ladies! |
 |
Wonder Woman epic win. |
 |
Anyone else feel like listening to Huey Lewis? |
 |
The Captain Kirk in me was very aroused. |
 |
Archer fans will know why this is awesome. |
 |
Wonder Women fill me with wonder (among other things). |
 |
Ultimate is fucked, but the awesome of the costumes endure. |
 |
Captain Marvel has a very loyal following. |
 |
Marty McFly looks at me like I banged his mom. |
 |
More Storm. Less Inhumans. I like it! |
 |
Not many Hawkgirls. Was too afraid to tell her. |
 |
Classic Ms. Marvel still awesome as hell. |
 |
Artist Alley was the epicenter of geeking out. |
 |
Yes. BoJack Horsemen has fans like this. Seriously. |
 |
Video games inspire more than shitty hashtags. |
 |
That's actually a manikin and not a cos-player. It was hard to tell the difference. |
 |
Anybody else remember the 90s? |
 |
I smell a team-up! |
 |
The only time I wish I were an Italian plumber. |
