Feb 10 2009New York Comic Con 2009 Cosplay Gallery

Well New York Comic Con took place this last weekend and, surprisingly, a bunch of people showed up dressed as their favorite characters. Apparently it's some new phenomenon called cosplay. I have no idea, but I like it. I posted a bunch of my favorites after the jump (pretty much all the ladies) and I've got to sadly admit: it seems like the quality of talent was lacking compared to other shows. Am I wrong? Who went? I demand answers! And also, any free swag you picked up. I wanna pretend I was there!
Hit it for the gallery of women and links to the even more massive Kotaku galleries.

and
The Cosplay of NYCC (Part Two) [kotaku]
Thanks to Julian, who made out with one of these chicks but made me promise I wouldn't say which. It was Supergirl.

FAKE!!!!
Thisa is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max was involved in a cross country race and he got a flat tire, but didn't have a jack. So he backed the car up onto a guardrail and changed the tire.

6. Sammywa - February 10, 2009 6:11 PM

Who would have thought daisy would post first?
10. V - February 10, 2009 6:19 PM
I don't think I've ever seen a Princess Peach that unattractive! And @ #5, I call second dibs!
11. naas - February 10, 2009 6:24 PM
oooohh that Asian bunny rabbit 3rd from the bottom, I came.
12. naas - February 10, 2009 6:27 PM
..cept someone banged her knees up pretty good from a lot of doggy & she's probably all pixelated down there anyways.
13. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 10, 2009 6:31 PM
Hulk's got cankles.
14. Annearchist - February 10, 2009 6:32 PM
Hey, how 'bout that one with the chick(s) pretending to fight stuff/the camera? Woo! That's the problem with being old. Nothing looks especially original.
I always wonder what those happy cutesy dressup anime gals are really thinking. I bet it's something along the lines of, "Just one more Con and I'll have enough money to pay for college."
15. Ollie Williams - February 10, 2009 6:38 PM
@11
That would be Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Also see comment 5.
16. Leg3nd - February 10, 2009 6:43 PM
Lol you can easily tell who is getting paid to be there from those who are just pure dorks. I love comic con.
17. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 10, 2009 6:45 PM
Supergirl is a cougar! Nice!!!
18. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 10, 2009 6:47 PM
I'm so sexually confused right now...I can't tell if Link is a boyish girl or a girlish boy.
19. Moose Knuckle - February 10, 2009 7:00 PM

SDCC '09 bitches
20. Truk - February 10, 2009 7:00 PM
#18, what's it matter? If it feels good, do it.
21. James - February 10, 2009 7:03 PM
Fully half of the female characters pictured here look like dudes.
22. CS - February 10, 2009 7:07 PM
Those ghostbuster girls win.
23. nikeforces - February 10, 2009 7:15 PM
yeah some these are kind of suspect. but the ghostbuster chicks can get it anytime
24. nikeforces - February 10, 2009 7:16 PM

25. kage - February 10, 2009 7:23 PM
@#19, yeah, we San Diego nerd girls are the hottest things ever. thanks for noticing!
26. Mickey - February 10, 2009 7:24 PM
Just wondering..but am I the only one the notice that the colors are backwards for the P1 and P2 signs?
27. naas - February 10, 2009 7:55 PM
@15 Ahh right you are Ollie, I missed #5 the first time around. Ditto on that rabbit hole.
28. DinosaurHumper - February 10, 2009 7:57 PM
I'd hit it! Especially that blue dress wearin' asian bunny!
29. naas - February 10, 2009 8:20 PM
^ ^ @15 he did what I did
30. Buckeye Voter - February 10, 2009 8:44 PM
That last one's a dude. Or an unfortunate woman. Either way, I ain't picky.
31. BallsOfSteel - February 10, 2009 9:00 PM
Holy carp! I know that Supergirl chick - I totally rammed her in the fridge of a Pizza Hut about 10 years ago! That reminds me, I've been meaning to warn people to not eat at Pizza Hut.
32. Tricky Ricky - February 10, 2009 9:07 PM
I want the ghostbuster chic with the glasses and red hair (on the left)....it' those subtle and quiet chics that are wild...forget the proton pack, I have a protein pack for her instead..
33. JMR - February 10, 2009 9:59 PM
Weird... I actually know the ghostbuster girl on the right, she used to go to my college.
34. antiyou - February 10, 2009 10:54 PM
first!
35. ewerrr - February 10, 2009 10:58 PM

I have no issue communicating without the use of profanity. Quite frankly, the english language offers much more colorful adjectives. The point being made is simply that in this country, where this blog is hosted, we have freedom of speech. The same freedom of speech that would protect this blogger (GW) in court. I find it rather disingenuous of him to post NSFW content and genitalia jokes, then censor our comments about them.
That is the GAYEST superman I have EVER seen. And Superman was pretty gay to start with...
37. Watch - February 10, 2009 11:41 PM
asian wonderwoman YOWZA!!!!
38. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 10, 2009 11:53 PM
@36: I think he looks remarkably similar to Dean Cain...so you're right! :p
39. Al Dracone - February 11, 2009 12:20 AM
OK, I admit it: I'm an idiot! I always said asian girls are ugly... Actually, when my son told me he wants to move to Japan an marry an asian girl, I promised to disown (and dismember) him if he does that, but I sure wouldn't mind him bringing that second one from the bottom home!
40. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 11, 2009 4:50 AM
Most of them look like that here...fcuked up teeth and all...
41. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 11, 2009 4:51 AM
That last one looks more like "Princess Peach Cobbler."
42. softlicious - February 11, 2009 5:39 AM
FIRST!!!!
Daisy was first, you can tell that because there's no shadows' from previous posts on her post. Daisy probably makes her text with photoshop.
This is just like that movie Princess Peach Has Been Better where princess Peach had an ugly day, unfortunately GW was there with his camera. Well, not that bad but Zelda is always better. Zelda Fitzgerald, sweeet Alabama.
43. NoSuchUserExists - February 11, 2009 8:50 AM
the hulk was fantastic - I got a great shot of his ass, and they made ASS CHEEKS for the damned suit.
Ass Cheeks.

44. catch22 - February 11, 2009 8:51 AM

45. Poizen - February 11, 2009 9:36 AM
I'll take the Ghostbusters and Bunny Girl.
46. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - February 11, 2009 10:08 AM
Also, blonde Leia looks like a man. Like a compact little Goldberg in a metal bra.
47. Billy D Williams - February 11, 2009 10:57 AM
Those ghost buster chicks look like haggard sluts. F them.
48. lolocaust - February 11, 2009 12:31 PM
I just popped like 19 boners.
49. missY - February 11, 2009 1:10 PM
no disrespect but i don't know how you can call it geekologie and miss out comiccon or not know what cosplay is...
50. STINK - February 11, 2009 2:37 PM
it's not cosplay unless there's midriff
51. ZOMG Madness - February 11, 2009 3:32 PM
I have a theory........... These photos were taken by a person who likes comics! HAH! I knew It. No one will ever question my authority again.
52. lily - February 11, 2009 3:49 PM
I know one of those girls!! The secret is out! Hilarious!
53. ZOMG Madness - February 11, 2009 4:12 PM
I know every single person in these pictures. you all fail!
54. gypsy - February 11, 2009 5:04 PM
Did any one else notice Princess Leia's underpants are showing under her costume?
55. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 11, 2009 7:30 PM
@46: lol, what kind of men do you hang around?
56. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - February 11, 2009 8:40 PM
56- She's compact, but burly somehow. Perhaps it's the shoulder/neck region that's bothering me. I guess she's cute in a bag over her head/ doggy style kinda way though *shrug* to each their own I guess. Perhaps you need to venture out of Japan to remember...
57. mike - February 11, 2009 8:46 PM
Nice armpit stain there sooperman... or should I say "Sloopa-mran"
58. formerly SPELLINGNAZI© - February 11, 2009 10:38 PM
57 - Are you trying to seduce me...? ;)
59. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - February 12, 2009 3:54 PM
59- If I were trying that I would simply say "Beer here, bring fangs"...
60. Louise - February 14, 2009 9:05 AM
Wow! I would like to go to the states!! They are so good! I was crossplaying young Link from Ocarina of Time at Uppcon, but that was in Sweden xD
And if it's just perverts in amerika i rather not go, read all coments ;P
61. Christie - February 18, 2009 5:22 PM
18- The Link is a girl (Tha'd be me). I am actually not offended, I guess wearing three sports bras and walking around on limited oxygen all day pays off. I did look like a girly boy, which is how Link looks!
26- I didn't even notice the sign colors were off! I'm such an Idiot!
62. The Lone Shadow - May 19, 2009 9:17 AM
@64: Wow, a cosplayer! cool!
Anyway, The chick in leather would be ok, so long as she didn't carve her name into your arm or get you to sample BDSM.
Also, i need a friend. Will anyone be my friend?
Anyone?
Hellooooo?
63. The Lone Shadow - May 19, 2009 9:22 AM
*headdesk* *facepalm* Crap. That wasn't meant to be blowing my own horn. Simple misunderstanding. its meant to be @62.
Still looking for a friend. Anybody who likes Jak and Daxter is cool. Anybody. Emos prefered, though. Emo chicks. But still, anyone.
64. Hawk - September 18, 2009 7:37 PM
Phhft! I look WAY better!
