Incredible cosplay again took over Manhattan for the annual New York Comic Con where fandoms unite to celebrate film, manga, TV, comics, video games and other genres (and sub-genres) of pop culture.
The four-day convention is a major event for the entertainment industry, featuring panels, exclusive previews, celebrity appearances, and announcements… such a new Dragon Ball Z series and a new teaser for The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live spin-off starring OG characters Rick and Michonne (Andrew Lincoln and Danai Gurira).

The original Comic Con was founded in 1970 as the Golden State Comic Book Convention by a group of comic book enthusiasts in California, which is now known as San Diego Comic-Con International.
