Skip to content Theme Parks & Destinations Why should you have to choose between Batman and the Joker when you can cosplay as both at the same time? By Published October 10, 2026, 7:00 am ET Reading time 1 minute © Adriano Contreras/io9 On day two of New York Comic Con 2026, anime got a lot of love from cosplayers. We saw three different characters from Chainsaw Man (Reze, Makima, and Denji), plus a super impressive Deku from My Hero Academia. And, of course, we need to give a special shout-out to the person in full-body makeup cosplaying as Jake Sully from Avatar. Take a look at the best cosplay we saw yesterday.
