  • NYCC 2015 Part Four - Comics!

    NYCC 2015 Part Four - Comics!




    Let's start in the main hall - here's where most of the bigger publishers setup shop - they'll sell you exclusives and hold signings and sometimes Q&A sessions too. There are also a bunch of comic vendors selling back issues, variants, supplies and more.

    Check out the displays from Valiant, Dark Horse, IDW, Archie, Oni and Avatar (selling CGC graded perfect '10' copies of some of their own books?)…

  • NYCC 2015 Part Three - Toys!

    NYCC 2015 Part Three - Toys!



    Another big part of what makes NYCC such a rad event to go to? Toys! Yeah, there are some dealers who peddle vintage stuff but a large part of the focus is on 'the new stuff' and the 'stuff you want but can't buy yet.' There was a lot of that this year, probably more than last year, with big players like Sideshow and Previews Select displaying some really impressive sculpts, prototypes and finished products. And of course, there were plenty of show exclusives on hand, often...

  • NYCC 2015 Part Two - Cosplay-A-Go-Go!

    NYCC 2015 Part Two - Cosplay-A-Go-Go!

    Following yesterday's gallery of the show, today we take a look at the cosplay element of the 2015 edition of the New York City Comic Con. Love it or hate it, cosplay has become a HUGE part of what makes conventions like this so popular and it has managed to draw in a whole new crowd of convention goers who attend to show off their work and admire that of others. And the conventions, NYCC in particular, encourage this. Given that some of the costumes can and do get a little risqué, the peo...

  • NYCC 2015 Part One - Walking The Floor Show

    NYCC 2015 Part One - Walking The Floor Show



    Last week New York City once again played host to the biggest pop culture gathering on the East Coast if not the entire country. From Thursday through Sunday fans of movies, TV, gaming, toy collecting, anime, movies and yes, comic books, gathered en masse to celebrate geek culture in all its many forms. R!S!P! was there and over the next few days we'll be posting a few different Comic Con galleries - this one is the first, and it's basically a look at the size and scope of...

  • R!S!P! At Special Edition NYC 2015

    R!S!P! At Special Edition NYC 2015



    This weekend saw the second installment of ReedPOP's Special Edition NYC. For those not in the know, this is basically a comic show getting back to its roots. If the massive New York City Comic Convention is the new norm, you can think of SENYC as that con's younger, more innocent brother as of yet not corrupted by movie star appearances, Walking Dead cast panels or video game announcements. No, SENYC is a comic book convention in the truest sense of the word, the kind you u...

  • Rock! Shock! Pop! At The New York City Comic Con - Part Four- Hey Kids! Comics!

    Rock! Shock! Pop! At The New York City Comic Con - Part Four- Hey Kids! Comics!




    So we did the floor walk, we covered the toys and we posted a bunch of pictures of cosplayers - but what about the comic book presence at NYCC 2014? Shouldn't that be what it's all about? Well, it's easy sometimes for the 'heart' of the event to get overshadowed by celebrity appearances, video games, cosplayers and everything else that goes on at a show as big as this one (and for the record, NYCC eclipsed San Diego for the first time, officially making this the biggest

    Rock! Shock! Pop! At The New York City Comic Con - Part Three - Cosplay-A-Go-Go!




    Love it or hate it, cosplay has exploded at conventions over the last few years and it's now just as much a reason for some people to attend as the vendors and guests are. In fact, there are even 'celebrity cosplayers' showing up at cons these days, putting in special appearances and doing booth signings. So yeah, even if you don't want to dress up for the day, you can't ignore the fact that a whole lot of people do. High fives to Reed Pop for creating a safe and f...

    Rock! Shock! Pop! At The New York City Comic Con - Part Two - TOY TOUR!




    Following up on yesterday's post in which we basically just walked the floor, this second installment of our four part coverage of the 2014 New York Comic Con is going to focus on one thing and one thing only… TOYS! And hot damn are there a lot of them at the show this year, some of which are being shown for the first time, some of which are show exclusives and some of which are still being worked on. As you'll see as you scroll through, there are toys of all kinds

    Rock! Shock! Pop! At The New York City Comic Con - Part One - Walking The Floor




    It's October in New York City again and for thousands upon thousands of pop culture junkies, comic book fans, gamers, toy freaks, cosplayers and movie addicts that means one thing - New York City Comic Con. The annual event, put on by the folks at Reed Pop, is by far the biggest event of its kind on the East Coast and the second biggest convention of its kind in the country. Once again held at (and completely filling) the massive Jacob Javitz Convention Center in Ma...

    Rock! Shock! Pop! Visits The New York City Comic Con 2013




    A few days ago, just over this past weekend as a matter of fact, pop culture blew a massive load across New York City for the four day New York Comic Con which took place in Manhattan at the Javitz Center from October 10th through the 13th. While these days, big comic conventions like this one and the annual San Diego event focus as much (sometimes more) on movies, toys, television shows and other things that aren't printed and bound, there was still plenty of four color

  • Rock! Shock! Pop! At The Big Apple Comic Con, July 17th, 2021!

    by Ian Jane


    Yesterday, July 17th, 2021, saw the first proper comic convention come to New York City since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. As anyone who watched the news in 2020 will recall, New York City, due to its density and massive population, got hit extremely hard early on and as such, things were shut down for quite a while to stop the spread and help get the positivity rate under control. Hospitals were filled up, people got sick and far too many people lost their lives. It

  • Thor - Live At Dante's, Portland, Oregon, September 14, 2007.

    Hey, remember concerts? Concerts were fun. Covid-19 has kind of completely fucked concerts for the time being, who knows when we'll get to enjoy live music again, so with that in mind, why not relive past glories through pictures of concerts from days past? Let's do it! A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away known as Portland, Oregon, one Jon Mikl Thor - or just plain old Thor to the masses - played a show at Dante's, a club on West Burnside in the downtown area famous for o...

    Running from November 1st, 2019 through December 21st, 2019 at the Sperone Westwater Gallery in Lower Manhattan is Squeaky Flies In The Mud, an exhibition of artwork created by none other than David Lynch. It's a strange selection of material, as you'd expect if you're familiar with his work, but fascinating to see and an interesting compliment to the film's that he's made. The press release from the gallery reads as follows: “Sperone Westwater is pleased to present a

    Writing an article about a store visit isn't something that we normally do around these here parts, but once in a while there is a reason to make an exception. Case in point? The guys that run Vinegar Syndrome have opened up a brick and mortar retail store called The Archive in Bridgeport, CT. Why does that matter to readers of this site? Because in an age where online sales seem to be killing physical stores (R.I.P. Mondo Kim's of NYC!), doing something like this is kind of

    by Ian Jane

    The first, of what will hopefully be a recurring Five Points Festival kicked off yesterday at Pier 36 on the Lower East Side riverfront of New York City. The two day festival, curated by Clutter Magazine and presented Midtown Comics, “is a collision of toys, comics, and counterculture.” Unlike a regular comic or toy convention, Five Points focuses the more artisanal aspect of the toy and comic industry. As such, most of the attendees had a connection to indy or small...

    by Ian Jane



    Despite all the cosplay, movie stars, TV stars, toys, video games and other assorted stuff, comic books are what started all of this and comic books remain, for some of us at least, the most important part of an event like NYCC. As such, we've saved the best for last. All the big publishers are, as per the norm, setup in the main hall. Marvel had a lot going on this year, like they always do, promoting Black Panther and Doctor Strange in a big way this year.
