Though I’ve already mentioned this in other posts and on my other Social Media Platforms along with discussions with those I see in public, I’m happy to remind the audience that the PiercingMetal website aka Me, Ken Pierce, will be returning to the rapidly growing New York Comic Con for our third straight year as a member of the Press. The event is their seventh and as a longtime fan of all things comic books and Science Fiction I am really excited to be exploring it once again. The reason for this post is to announce that I will also be planning on using this Instagram network as much as possible to hopefully help raise more website interest and overall awareness. I’ve only had the account for I think about a month so there aren’t a whole lot of photographs to check out just yet but going forward let’s see how much more special I can make PiercingMetal by using it. Believe it or not, I could NOT secure the actual brand identity and am using PiercingMetalNYC instead which will have to do. One of my first photos for the NYCC 2012 adventuring is the cool press badge which is themed from the hit show “The Walking Dead”. I guess the other badges have some of the cast characters but as you can see here, the media have a ravenous looking zombie. I guess that applies for some of us out there in the scene. Are you going to the New York Comic Con?
Well, the day is finally here as the once looming New York Comic Con 2012 is now right here upon us and I am super excited about being able to attend as a member of the press once again. With this being the case, the core of the blogs and reports will be focused on this massive event for the next couple of days but I will do my best to get in some of the additional things that I have been a party to for good measure. If you still need a ticket you are out of luck my friends because this thing is sold out completely.
Last year I focused a lot more on the Costumed Players or Cosplay as they like to say and that was a LOT of fun to do. It was different and showcased the fans who make this stuff all the more special. Maybe I will do that again because it was also a way for me to get more folks interested in what we are doing with the blog and the main website. I’m not much of a planner when it comes to Comic Con and instead wander its halls by the seat of my pants. Maybe that is a bad thing to do but oh well, the task still gets done at the end of the day.

At the time that you are reading this post, it is only two weeks away….. Can you believe it? I know that it shocks me because it seemed like only yesterday that I was putting the final touches on the last chapter of my multiple part coverage of the 2011 New York Comic Con and that was one hell of an adventure to bring to you here on PiercingMetal Musings. I’m especially excited because now that I have secured my Official Press Credentials to attend, I will be doing this for the third year in a row and I can hardly wait to see what is going to be in front of me over the course of those four days. Now I am wondering who is going to check it out this time from The Metal Republic? Are you dressing up as anyone in particular? Is there any one event that you are looking most forward to? Well, whatever you will be doing just make sure that your calendar is clear on October 14th through October 17th because that is when this year’s event will be taking over the Jacob Javits Center.
