New York Comic Con attracted thousands of comic book fans last
weekend, with many donning costumes ranging from simple Spider-Man
T-shirts to an elaborate, $5,500 replica of Boba Fett's Mandalorian
armor.
Many geek-friendly celebrities made appearances, including comedian Stephen Colbert, Clerks director Kevin Smith, Battlestar Galactica stars James Callis and Tricia Helfer -- and, mysteriously, Gary Coleman of Diff'rent Strokes.
Last year's New York Comic Con -- manned mostly by volunteers -- was
shut down by fire marshals, but the 2007 event's operation was tighter
than a pair of spandex undies.

Here's a cool... thing: Clint Laourdakis shows off a replica of a sword from Final Fantasy VII as part of a display for handmade weapon retailer LucyGoosie.
