Some comic book fans aren't waiting for Halloween to put on their best costumes.
They are taking part in the annual Comic Con festival at Manhattan's Pier 94 this weekend.
Fans took part in a costume competition and met stars of their favorite classic television shows, like Adam West from "Batman" and Lou Ferrigno from "The Incredible Hulk."
"We want to see William Shatner and other stars. These are famous people on our planet as well, and we must hobnob with the fancy famous people," said one fan in an alien costume.
"I came out for Comic Con all weekend and I'm looking forward to hanging out with all the artists, the celebrities and all the people dressed up in costumes," said another fan.
"We've got a lot of the artists, autographs going on, the artist's alley, the stores," said a third.
The convention also features also video games, toys and electronics. Sports heroes like Dwight Gooden and Yogi Berra are also attending.
The convention runs through 5 p.m. Sunday.
