NYCC 2017: Thurs

This past week was the 2017 edition of New York Comic Con (NYCC). As always it was a hell of an event! In fact, it seemed even bigger than last year, but then every year does. Anyway, let us start at very beginning of this year's event with the coolest cosplays from Thursday, Oct. 5, 2017.

Early on in the day, I ran into beautiful cosplayer Kristen Lanae, who was signing at the In Your Dreams Collectibles (the same booth where I interviewed Aurora O'Brien last year). She was cosplaying as Freddy Krueger on this day. But, you'll see more of her, soon, as on Saturday, I conducted an interview with her. Stayed tuned for that! For now, here are two pics of her as the sexiest Freddy, that you are likely to ever see!

Over at the Midtown Comics booth, I found the lovely Joanna Mari, who was doing an awesome Wonder Woman cosplay!

Meanwhile, at the Rilakkuma booth, I got my pic taken with the adorable Rilakkuma! I must admit that I never heard of this cute Japanese character before. But, as I saw him, I knew that I had to get a pic with him!

And, now for the rest of the best cosplays from Thurs at NYCC!

 A sexy as hell X-23!

And, below, in honor of the recent passing of the great Hugh Hefner, I present to you Hef Deadpool! I am gonna say this flat out: this is THE coolest Deadpool variation that I saw all four days!

It was not just all cosplay, though, as I attended some panels. One of them was on the recently released Cult of Chucky. It had writer/ director/ series creator Don Mancini, Jennifer Tilly, Fiona Dourif, her dad and voice of Chucky: Brad Dourif, Alex Vincent, and a special appearance by Child's Play 2's Christine Elise, who also appears in this new one! She is at the far right of the third pic, directly below.

Now, let us end this day's coverage with a pic of the best, and loveliest, Harley Quinn, that I saw that day and myself:

Coming up: more coverage from the rest of the three days!
