    Ticket Trouble

    2019年10月3日, アメリカ ⋅ 🌧 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.

  • We Made It!

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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!もっと詳しく

  • No Gomez

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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!もっと詳しく

  • He Made It!

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Stan "The Man" Lee

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Pennywise

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Mr. Freeze

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Crowds are Building

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • The Search

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Under the Glass

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Vampirella

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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.もっと詳しく

  • Bumblebee

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ⛅ 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!もっと詳しく

  • Beauty and the Beast

    2019年10月4日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 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!もっと詳しく
