Leave a comment

Right after I enjoyed a matinee showing of “Barbie” at the Alpine Cinema in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn I just had to stop into our neighborhood comic book store Galaxy Comics to see what was going one. After a brief catchup with the staff and perusing the racks once again I noticed the flyer down below in the post that was announcing the first-ever “Kaiju Brooklyn” event.

Hey there my friends, I am going to start this one off in the same fashion that I have done before by saying how jealous I am of you West Coast readers who are into the Pop Culture geek stuff that we keep posting about because the Comic-Con International: San Diego begins today and we wish that we were going. It’s truly one of the biggest media events of the year for these interests and if you are attending to one of the biggest media events of the year. If you’re like myself, its most likely that you will be in attendance and I cannot wait to see everyone’s posts on YouTube and Instagram and the others. Though we are not attending, PiercingMetal has been helping to share the announcements about the convention with posts about what assorted vendors and publishers will be doing so just click HERE to see the full rundown. If anything else gets announced during the event I will do my best to get it all online for good measure. The event has been sold out for months and since last year was the return to being a public event this one should be a little more normal than the last time.
