2013 New York Comic Con - Friday

I was back for my third year at the awesome New York Comic Con last Friday, sadly not in costume as I ran out of time to finish it, so I brought out my trusty old brain slug, which oddly kept telling people to vote for the brain slug planet... hmm.....

But I digress, this was my second year going on a Friday and I must say that I find it a wee bit more enjoyable than Saturday's at the con as you can still easily walk from one half of the Javitz Center to the other and not get stuck in people traffic jams (aka the best time to actually walk the show floor and see everything so far in my opinion would be Friday, if you're a 3-Day pass holder). Once again though, the people were awesome and the panels were great!








































Stay tuned for the next post, which will cover my day at the 2013 New York Comic on Saturday!

New York Comic Con 2012

I was back for my second year at the New York Comic Con, this time for two days, and I just can't wait until next year!

This year the con sold out of tickets weeks before the doors to the Javits Center opened and it was packed, no matter where you walked you either bumped into Batman, Bane or the admiring fan taking a photo of their favorite cosplayer. Usually something like this would just make me cranky, but not while at comic con, because although you're stuck in a people traffic jam you're stuck amongst fellow nerds who will have an impromtu discussion on the merits of The Walking Dead tv show versus the original comics (which I love!) or learn about new cons such a special My Little Pony con that is directed more towards men.

It's a unique experience where you get to meet new people who all share the same nerdy love that you have for comics, film and television alike. Next year though I plan on springing for a 4 day pass, with the New York Comic Con's growing popularity, nearly rivaling the famous San Diego Comic Con, it's going to be just that much harder to see everything you want to in only two days.

But for now, a highlight of photos from the two days I got to go:
