When we met last time, I was just arriving at some of the “Super Powers” action figure line from McFarlane Toys. I’m continuing along with the awesome discoveries in their booth so let’s keep on going.

Many of the McFarlane Toys “Super Powers” line are revisits to the original lin of figures but they kept on expanding them and bringing awesome new characters to the market.

Scenes From New York Comic Con 2022: Day Three (Part 1)

October 15, 2022 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

Alright my friends, we are at the halfway point in our adventures at the famed New York Comic Con for 2022. After spending a good amount of hours at the event on Thursday and Friday, I can safely say that its gotten over its pandemic attendance and is closer to being as packed to the rafters as before. I’m starting on the Day Three stuff with this post and since the newbie visitors will have missed a lot of the fun by now I am going to suggest that they click HERE to see everything that has already been posted. I tend to speak in a continuous fashion and sometimes refer to other posts so starting from the get go makes the most sense. Now while I try to only begin snapping pictures once I am inside and ready to go, sometimes I see sights that I must secure in case I don’t see them again. That would be the case with this awesome Stargirl and Doctor Fate who I met on the “7” train heading to Javits.

Now that I was inside the Javits I could do a new “hey we’re here” video short. I’ve honestly been loving doing these as they are so unscripted and fun to load up from this kind of event. I feel I might move forward with this practice at all the events I attend. Can’t hurt right?
