Exploring New York Comic Con 2018: Day Three (Part 2)

Leave a comment

Let’s keep this party going as the 2018 New York Comic Con coverage continues. If you didn’t see any of the other chapters, please click HERE so you can enjoy it all as a single report. I’m going to be spending some time down in the Artist Alley section and our first stop is the table of Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez who created the “Ricanstruction” comic book. Money from this title is going to aid the people of Puerto Rico for hurricane recovery.

Exploring Five Points Festival @ Brooklyn Expo Center: Part 1 (6/2/2018)

Leave a comment

If you’ve been keeping up with PiercingMetal on the social networking side, you know that it’s been a busy week already as over the last few days I’ve been spending time exploring the Book Expo that was being held at the Javits Center. While some of the discoveries at that convention have made their way here, a larger part of it gets posted on our Lifestyle Blog partner website “The Chronicles” of Piercing Ken. With the Book Expo completed it was time to get down to business at the still new Five Points Festival which has returned for its second year as a convention. This year it would move to the Brooklyn Expo Center in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and this space is very well known to me as its the same place where I attend the NYC Hot Sauce Expo every year. The Five Points Festival is loaded with sights and designer toys galore.   Let’s take a walk.

Exploring Five Points Festival @ Pier 36: Part 1 (5/20/2017)

Leave a comment

Okay my friends, we are now going to present you with the fun-filled visual findings from the first-ever “Five Points Festival”.  The convention was taking place on Pier 36 down on the Lower East Side and it would be the first time that I ever went down this way for an event.  It was pretty  easy to get to by mass transit and then would be a few minutes walk.  Check out one of the promo pieces of art to warm up to what is coming in these photos.   As you can see the premise was Designer Toys, Comics, Street Art, Beer and an overall NYC vibe.  This is going to be interesting for sure.  Here we go.
