New York Comic Con is the East Coast's biggest and most exciting pop-culture convention. The show floor at New York City's Javits Center plays host to the latest and greatest in comics, graphic novels, anime, manga, video games, toys, movies, and television. The panels and autograph sessions give fans a chance to interact with their favorite creators. The screening rooms feature sneak peeks at films and television shows months before they hit either the big or small screens. New York Comic Con attracted more than 105,000 attendees last year, and is the only pop-culture convention in the nation that takes place in the comic book, publishing, media, and licensing capital of the world — Gotham City. Here are some images from this year's event.
