I have gone to some good New York Comic-Con panels in the past, but hands-down, the one for “1917” is my all-time favorite. It was therefore extra rewarding that following the panel I got to chat one-on-one with two of… Read More ›

NYCC 19: “Lincoln” Rhyme and The Bone Collector

NYCC 2019: “Are you Afraid of the Dark?” Again
I was a little too old to watch “Are you Afraid of the Dark?” the first time the series came around, but maybe I’m old enough once more now that the show is back for a miniseries airing on Nickelodeon… Read More ›

The four individuals, along with co-writer Krysty Wilson-Cairns and producer Pippa Harris, were… Read More ›
NYCC 2019: “The King’s Man” and “Free Guy”
It is always interesting watching the division of time when there is not one, but two (or more), projects being discussed during a single panel at a conference. It doesn’t really mean anything necessarily, it just always leaves me curious…. Read More ›
“Doctor Who” is the Best Way to End NYCC
One of the things I love about “Doctor Who” fandom is that it feels so inclusive. This is not a group of people who will lambast you for not knowing the third supporting actor in the fourth episode of Jon… Read More ›
“How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World” Draws out Emotions at NYCC
Whether or not the original “How to Train Your Dragon” looked incredible when the movie was first released to theaters in 2010, having watched it on Saturday night I can tell you that it is most certainly dated at this… Read More ›
“Anna and the Apocalypse” Makes Merry at NYCC
After getting to see several huge panels in Madison Square Garden at this year’s New York Comic-Con, I opted to end my Saturday by heading back to the Javits Center and sitting in on a smaller one. Not small small,… Read More ›
Going “Inside the Spiderverse” at NYCC
It is never surprising when a panel at New York Comic-Con offers up video. If it’s a panel on a movie or a television show, they have to offer video. Even so, those in the audience regularly are thrilled by… Read More ›
“Good Omens” Panel Makes for Positive Feelings at NYCC
Although I have attended many different panels at Madison Square Garden for New York Comic Con over the past few years, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a response like the one “Good Omens” got when they were introduced. It… Read More ›
“Alita: Battle Angel” and “Dark Phoenix” Storm NYCC
My Friday at New York Comic-Con this year ended with 20th Century Fox’s showcase and Q&A. On tap for those in the audience were looks at “Alita: Battle Angel” and “Dark Phoenix,” the latter of which is the latest entry… Read More ›
“Mortal Engines” Devours New York Comic-Con
With his “Lord of the Rings” trilogy, Peter Jackson has earned himself, at least in some corners of fandom, a lifetime pass. That is, if Jackson is involved in a project, a whole lot of folks are going to be… Read More ›
New York Comic Con 2016 – My Closing Thoughts
I love New York Comic Con. There, I said it. It is loud and it is crowded and it doesn’t have the same cache as it’s San Diego big brother, but it puts a lot of people who love the… Read More ›
New York Comic Con 2016: "Trollhunters"
New York – I will have a piece at another time detailing all the various sorts of New York Comic Con fun I had in the past week, but now is the time to talk about the “Trollhunters” panel held… Read More ›
New York Comic Con 2016: "Death Race 2050" and Roger Corman
New York – “Death Race 2050” has nothing to do with “Death Race” or “Death Race 2” or “Death Race: Inferno.” That would be silly. “Death Race 2050” is more aligned with “Death Race 2000,” while “Death Race” is a… Read More ›
Okay, but why do I Like New York Comic-Con?
If you saw anything that I posted to Twitter over the past few days, you’ll know I spent scads of time at New York Comic-Con. There is already a piece up at Blogcritics about some of the Capcom stuff I… Read More ›
