So as previously mentioned in my Day One, Part One post, the New York Comic Con for 2024 had taken over what appeared to be the entire Javits Center. Now this is usually the case with this convention but with the expansion of the space a few years ago it just seems even more massive. I’m going to continue along with the day to day observations both visually and with the occasional editorial and if this interests you I’d suggest that you first click NYCC 2024 to launch a brand-new browser tab in order to see all of the New York Comic Con posts from this year in one handy space. My Day One adventuring continues along with a game about Boba. I’m not too up on this outside of Boba Tea but this looked cute.

Let’s take a look at the Official Press and some images.
