I've always been impressed by the effort put into cosplay costumes, and if there's anyone who manages to highlight the creative skills of comic book fanatics, it's Senen Llanos.
Senen Llanos paid a visit to New York Comic Con, which is the East Coast's biggest comic convention. The talented photographer captured some captivating portraits of die-hard fans who have dressed up as their favorite characters in the pop cultural world. What's interesting is how Llanos has blacked out the busy background to bring more focus and attention to the subject being captured. Impressive costumes that he has found include Captain America, Bane, Mr. T and more. This is perhaps the best portrayal I've ever seen of cosplayers.
