New York Comic Con 2011 was in full sway now and we had arrived at the busiest day of the whole weekend. That’s right Cosplay Fans, I am talking about the Saturday opening of the event which unless I am mistaken in this drew about 100,000 fans last year. That’s a lot of comic book, science fiction, horror and video gaming maniacs if you ask me. Today I would be flying the event solo as our good buddy Skeleton Pete needed to take care of his own side of the fence. He’ll be back for the final day of Comic Con fun on Sunday and as I had done with the previous parts of the event posts, I am largely focused on the costumed participants with this year. There were a lot of photos to share from Saturday, so please continue as my media wanderings begin now….

With the cooler than cool Press Pass you are allowed access into some regions of the Con that the general public is not permitted. OK, for the most part its a couple of small meeting rooms with tables and some literature but in there you can set up your gear, make your notes about planned coverage and keep your phone or laptop charged if you brought either of those devices along with you.

Here is the sign for the “Press Lounge” and all I did was shoot the sign as there is not much really going on in the rooms outside of the just mentioned preparation for the Con adventuring. Some of the press peeps were in costume and there were some Ghostbusters, but I didn’t manage to get a photo of them.

It was that time of the year again. The Fall weather had just essentially started to make itself known over here on the East Coast and as October worked towards its middle, the Sixth Annual NY Comic Con would take over the massive Jacob Javits Center for the next four days. Four days you say? Yes, you are reading that correctly because this time around the event would move its Press and Professionals only access to a day before the masses arrive and also open it up to those lucky enough to purchase one of the limited edition four day passes. As expected I would be braving this mega-event as a member of the press but this time I would be joined by our good friend and comrade in arms Peter Parrella, who many know by the name Skeleton Pete. As I would be attending all four days of the Con, I would be taking a lot of photos and hence giving you a lot more to digest. Last year’s coverage was served up in several different portions per day and I will strive to do that again. On your mark, get set……..GO!!!!!
