This comic book's title made us titter like 12-year-old idiots.

Adults who failed to progess beyond childhood beaten by actual child.

This guy was here by himself, giving one the impression that he was already dressed like that when he passed by the Javitts Center and noticed a comic book convention going on.

From the collection of famed Japanese toy designer Whogivesashitsu. Goddammit, the Japanese are weird.

This was the Skid Row section of the convention floor. We didn't make eye contact.

Evidently, this is where the dorks hatch.

"Hey, sailor!"

Much like porn stars, superheroes from the '70s didn't have to be in any particular shape.

You would never see an awesome product like this marketed to children today. We are such pussies.

Early screen tests evidently had the role of the Joker in the upcoming Batman movie played by Phyllis Diller.

Ah a good laugh in the morning, I myself have been to a few of these events, no not in costume. Gene Simmons even picked up on my girlfriend. If your lucky you might spot some of the Adult comic live models. There's a reason to go.
Have you seen the New Tomb Raider girl. Ouch!

So I inquire, "why were you there?" and I additionally inquire, what would you have looked like if the camera was turned on you? The looks peoplel gave you appeared as if you were one of them. Or are you a bully who goes out of their way to be an ass?

Wow - are you really that desperate for hits that you'll post a garbage article like this with boring jokes and overused sarcasm?
If you want to try a controversial piece, write about something controversial. Next up - sports fans who paint their faces, right?

Ah, it's all in good fun. Nerds' ability to be self-depricating is their most endearing trait. We're all nerds in one way or another. We just prefer to embrace it in our homes, rather than in a huge convention center full of jerks with cameras.
