Comic book conventions are a place to celebrate your love of your favorite books and characters. For some that means dressing up as them. Think Halloween but the theme for the costumes that year are all comics.

While meandering around the convention it is impossible to not spot a caped crusader now and then. Anything from giant robots to Superman to hordes of Storm Troopers will fill the crowd and cause traffic jams with fans wanting pictures. So here are some of the superheroes, villains, sidekicks, henchmen and others!
