Ticket Trouble
3 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ 🌧 59 °F
I've got my ticket for New York Comic Con and I'm all ready to go there tomorrow morning. There seemed to be a lot of trouble regarding tickets this year. I never got mine so I had to contact the ReedPop offices to have another ticket sent to me. After I filed a lost mail claim with the post office ReedPop sent me a new ticket via overnight mail. What great service!
Sam isn't so lucky. When he saw my ticket, it reminded him that he forgot his badge at home. It's too late to call ReedPop right now but we're hoping that they can resolve this matter tomorrow morning. I'm sure that he's going to be able to get in though. I really doubt that he's the only person who ever forgot, or lost, their ticket. I hope that everything goes smoothly tomorrow morning.Meer informatie

On the Way
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F
Here we are on our way to New York Comic Con at the Javits Center. We got on the train in Flushing, heading for Hudson Yards. Going from the first stop to the last stop was a much shorter ride than I had expected. I'm glad that we had an Express train!Meer informatie

Going Up?
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F
We're here at the Hudson Yards subway station. We were able to get an Express train out of Flushing so the ride didn't seem too long. These steep escalators going to the street remind me of the ones Kathy and I took while riding the subways in London. Mind the Gap!Meer informatie

We Made It!
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F
After months of waiting, we're finally here inside New York Comic Con! I've never seen it so empty before but it's just opening up now. Later on, this place is going to be packed! Sam went to the convention offices so he could work out things with his forgotten ticket and I'm going to quickly run upstairs to the Mezco booth and, hopefully, get a Gomez figure. I hope that the line there hasn't gotten too long already!Meer informatie

No Gomez
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F
I ran through the convention floor as quickly as I could to get to the Mezco booth, hoping to get this figure. Getting a Gomez figure is my main mission today but, unfortunately, this exclusive figure was all sold out. I was shocked, and asked why since they had announced that a small number of this figure would be available each day of the convention but it wasn't the case. They told me that they had such a big turnout on Thursday that they sold everything out on the first day. That's not good. What about everyone else who wanted to get one during the other days? So unfair!Meer informatie

Anime Cosplay
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
These cosplay girls are all over the convention. I'm not sure who's she's supposed to be but it looks like one of those Japanese anime characters. The Japanese animation is very popular with a lot of people but I never really got into it. I tried but, for whatever reason, it just doesn't appeal to me.Meer informatie

It's still early and the convention is slowly opening up but I'm here and ready to have fun! I still have to try and locate Sam first. I hope that he was able to get his ticket problem straightened out!Meer informatie

He Made It!
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Sam's inside the convention, and wearing a new badge. Last night, before we came here, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his badge at home. He was upset about it but, after researching it on the comic con website, he found out that, since he activated the badge already, they could easily give him a new one. Unfortunately, they made him pay for a whole new badge! I think that they should have given the new badge for free or at least have given him a discount on it. We'll, at least he was able to get into the convention despite not having his ticket with him.Meer informatie

Stan "The Man" Lee
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
With the passing of Stan Lee, a true legend in the comics industry, many companies have started making figures of him. I'm not really sure how I feel about that. On one hand, it's a great tribute but it can also be seen as trying to make a profit from his death. Right now, I'm choosing to look at these figures as a tribute to Stan Lee. I never met him but Sam was lucky enough to not only meet him but also have him sign one of his comic books.Meer informatie

Pennywise
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Pennywise, the evil clown from Stephen King's It, is now an action figure made by several different toy companies. I saw this one at the Sideshow display. Sideshow makes fantastic figures but, at around 12 inches or more, they are quite big and also extremely expensive. The typical Sideshow figure usually around $200 to $250 but I've seen some of the costing more. This Pennywise figure will set you back $267.Meer informatie

Mr. Freeze
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
I saw Mr. Freeze at the Mezco booth. I'm guessing that this is just a prototype because this figure is not scheduled for release until the Spring of 2020. I'm definitely going to get Mr. Freeze! The details of this figure are amazing! I already have the Mezco Batman so it would be great to have a few villains for him to interact with.Meer informatie

Evil Toys
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
This has got to be one of the creepiest looking toys that I've ever seen. It makes me think of a line from that Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life". "He was a bad man, so I turned him into a jack in the box!"Meer informatie

Crowds are Building
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
As the day goes on, it keeps getting more crowded. It's not too bad right now but I know that the crowds will just keep on building. It's kind of amazing that there are so many people here who are all into the same sort of things that I am. I like it but, at the same time it makes me feel a bit less unique.Meer informatie

The Search
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Sam was loving the comic sellers that had these dollar boxes. He looked so happy to be searching through the dealers bargain bins, filling up the holes in his collection. Unlike me, he still has, and treasures, all of his comic books. I'm so surprised that he's able to remember every one that he has and is very quick to spot the books that he still needs.Meer informatie

Under the Glass
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Every time I come to the Javits Center I'm amazed by the size of it. No matter how big this place is, though, it still feels so crowded. Comic Con seems to become more crowded each year. I wonder how many tickets are allotted for each day and if they keep raising the number each year. I'm thinking that they do because it seems to be more crowded than ever.Meer informatie

Vampirella
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Of all popular longstanding comics properties, Vampirella is one of the most difficult to track for new readers. Not only has she spanned countless crossovers, guest appearances, and mini-series, she’s also spanned multiple publishers. Dozens of creators have taken on Vampirella stories, with completely different ideas of what makes the character work. Fans have rejected her as being too sexy, then when the costume is changed she’s criticized for not being sexy enough. When you pick up a Vampirella comic, it isn’t always easy to guess what kind of take you’re going to be reading.Meer informatie

I've seen Ronald McThor, if that's the name he's picked for himself, at just about every ComicCon that I've been to. It's a great mashup cosplay and he always gets a lot of attention as he makes the rounds of the convention floor. I love his hammer!Meer informatie

The Javits Center was designed by architect James Ingo Freed of Pei Cobb Freed & Partners. The controversial and revolutionary space frame structure was begun in 1980, finished in 1986, and named for United States Senator Jacob Javits, who died that year.Meer informatie

Cosplayer Elise Laurenne came as Marvel's Carnage. She looks kind of familiar but I can't really place her. She had lots of people coming to see her so I guess that she does have a following. There are so many people doing cosplay now that it's almost impossible to know all of them.Meer informatie

4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
Lots of people in the cosplay community like to do cosplay mashups. This woman is a perfect example of what can be done with this idea. She's combined Ariel, the little mermaid, and Aquaman. I like the result! The cosplay community is already so talented and creative but these character combinations really take things to another level!Meer informatie

I usually like to concentrate my pictures on the women cosplayers but this guy, dressed as Nightwing, really caught my eye. He perfectly captured the grittiness of Nightwing as seen on the Titans show on Netflix. His dark and brooding look is so in character!Meer informatie

Spider-Man is always a popular choice for cosplay and, like every other year, I saw so many people dressed up as Spider-Man. I guess that the new Spider-Man movie, as well as an appearance in the latest Avengers film has kept old webhead on everyone's mind.Meer informatie

4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 63 °F
I've never understood the popularity of Transformers. To me, it seems like a show that was created just to sell toys. I've never seen the original cartoons but I really tried to get into the recent movies. They seemed so popular that I decided to give the Transformers another chance but, just like before, I couldn't get into it. Well, at least I gave it a chance!Meer informatie

Beauty and the Beast
4 oktober 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ☀️ 64 °F
This Beauty and the Beast couple look fantastic! That's not a mask that the Beast was wearing either. It's make-up and, I'm assuming, some prosthetics. He was able to talk, make different facial expressions and, pretty much, was able to do anything else he could do with his real face. I'm very impressed by this! He looks like he just stepped out of a movie set!Meer informatie

I'm not sure who this woman was dressed up as but I loved her make up! Those eyes are downright hypnotizing! I'm thinking that she's a character from one of the Japanese animation shows but, as I don't watch them, I have no idea who she is supposed to be.Meer informatie
