Hey Friends, I am back with the second installment from the recent Big Apple Comic Con that was held only a few days ago at the New Yorker Hotel. As I’ve already mentioned, the convention now seems to be a one-day affair and has locked in the late fall and winter season as a “Christmas Con” of sorts. Let’s continue along with the awesome artist John Holmstrom from Punk Magazine and much more.

Hey there my friends I am back with more of the absolutely exciting day by day visuals and observations from the recent New York Comic Con for 2024. As you know the convention itself ended several days ago but I’m left with numerous days of things to share with you afterwards. I’m starting off with my Day Four stuff now and if you’re only just now joining into the fun you’re going to want to click NYCC 2024 as that will launch a brand-new browser tab with all of my previous posts in sequential order.

For me, Day Four is often clean-up day and by that I mean to check off things I missed on the other days and what not. I followed no real mission plan but was happy to encounter Doctor Doom as I wandered. This cosplay looked like how Doom was revealed to be RDJ at the San Diego Comic-Con a few months ago. I’m not happy with this at all but moving along.

Okay so here we are again and before this installment gets underway let me thank you for sticking with this group of narratives for so many parts already. To me as a photographer and journalist, the NY Comic Con is one of the most daunting of events to cover because its not only massive in scope but its also taking over other locations as well. Sure we have the Press Badge as our credentials but that doesn’t let you jump lines to cover panels and appearances, you have to arrive early as all heck to make sure you are inside those. As result, I stick to the Javits Center generally and explore as much as possible as you have seen in the past posts. Day Three is the Saturday session and the most attended historically speaking. Part 1 of this days overview will begin in a moment and find me exploring Artist Alley and some other regions. If you missed anything that came before this post, click on THIS LINK to open a battery of content to peruse. Shall we?

I’m also going to keep featuring all of the cosplayers that stop and talk to me because they are awesome and deserve to be celebrated.
