Yes, it’s still August. There are a few days left until Labor Day ends another Summer of Fun!
So that means it’s time for the Fall Season of (unofficial) comic cons!
Hey! New York Comic Con is in October! I wonder what’s up at their site?
Lots of guests being announced.
MAJOR guests!
Oh, and they are spreading the lurv out-and-about the greater metropolitan area, with the inaugural “New York Super Week“, held October 3-12, 2014.
It’s a brilliant marketing move. Javits can only hold so many people (I’m guessing 150K max during NYCC), and can only sell so many tickets. This expands the geekery to the general populace, with many free events available!
What’s available, you ask?
Well… there’s Neil Gaiman teaming up with NPR at the Y! (Buy now, before he announces it on his blog!)
Columbia University displaying comics treasures from their collections! (Free!)
Thrilling Adventure Hour (already sold out! but there’s a workshop!)
Podcasts!
Cosplay!
Burlesque!
EVEN CAT VIDEOS!
