NYCC 2011: Cosplay Photo Parade: Saturday Edition, Vol. 1

The 2011 New York Comic Con on Saturday was nothing less than a madhouse. The Con this year felt like it was a lot bigger than last year but even with the extra space, it still felt like the building was about to burst. While walking down the aisles, one couldn’t help but feel smothered by the mass of people coming from all sides. I guess it is true what they say: Mo’ space, Mo’ problems.
Thankfully, Geeks of Doom was still on hand to show you the cool costumes were present. Saturday was so packed, the photos taken there had to be split up into two parts, so enjoy this photo parade, Volume 1! Second half to come soon.
As always, if you see yourself in any of these photos, be sure to shout out and let us know! [...]

NYCC 2011: ‘Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance’ Will Be A Hard PG-13
 |
Posted by Cinemumra | October 17th, 2011 at 2:54 pm |

Despite being a sequel to one of the worst films to come out of the recent golden age of comic book films, Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance has a ton going for it. Be it the creative team of Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor (Crank) being behind the camera, or Nicolas Cage, Cirian Hinds, and Idris Elba being in front of it, this film has all the makings of an impressive step up.
And at this the 2011 New York Comic-Con this weekend, those in attendance at the film’s panel got to see not only on some great, if not all that new, footage, but also a really great panel featuring the two aforementioned filmmakers [...]

New York Comic-Con 2011 saw the premiere of the first episode of the all-new Green Lantern: The Animated Series and Geeks of Doom was there to watch it.

NYCC 2011 Video: Watch ‘The Avengers’ Cast Deliver The ‘Avengers Assemble!’ Battle Cry

Undeniably, the panel for Marvel’s The Avengers was the most highly anticipated event at this year’s New York Comic-Con. It was the final panel of the day on Saturday at the Con’s IGN Theater, and while it began at around 7pm, the line of people waiting to get in hours before snaked around the entire area, leaving a lot of fans who didn’t get in quite disappointed.

Posted by MK2Fac3 | October 15th, 2011 at 10:00 am |

Most everyone in the geek world knows that New York Comic-Con is going on this weekend and it just so happens that one of my favorite comic book companies, Evil Ink!, is here to sell merch and sling comics!
Luckily, I got a chance to catch up with Claudio Sanchez (of Coheed and Cambria) and Chondra Echert on their upcoming book Key of Z on the convention floor at Booth 1345 about the new comic, what they’re looking forward to seeing at the convention, and what they’ve got coming up. You can watch my video interview here below. Now, the audio quality on the video is a little off, so before you take to the comments section to tell me that I should have been looking at the camera or using a mic, I totally agree with you. My bad, it will never happen again.
So, to save you the ear strain, I wanted to tell you about some of the high points from the interview, and they are listed here below [...]

Ahh, New York Comic-Con is here again. Or as I like to call it ‘OMG! I wanna buy everything I see. Please stop me! Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie noooowww!… What’s that smell?‘
