Last week's New York Comic-Con played host to some of geekdom's biggest stars, as the casts and crew of The Avengers, Nikita and The Walking Dead came to the IGN Theater to talk about what's on the horizon.
We caught up with everyone behind the scenes to chat about their projects, and took some back stage portraits to capture the spirit and style of the event. Here's our exclusive look at the people who made NYCC 2011 so special, in their words and our pictures.
