Confirming what Bleeding Cool had been reporting on as far back as May 2017 and as recently as this past weekend (here and here), pop culture event organizer ReedPOP (a division of Reed Exhibitions) announced that it is acquiring MCM. MCM is the organization responsible for the largest pop...
Fandomfest rolled into NYCC last weekend with one goal; to provide an excellent time for fans within the Javits Center. They had their own corner of the exhibit hall, where they had a screen printing area, video games, and a food truck. The food truck was arguably the most popular attraction...
Not too long ago, we told you about an exhibit currently currently showing at the Metropolis Gallery; The World’s Greatest Walking Dead Collection. Last week during New York Comic Con, I made my way to the Gallery to check it out in person. I got to enjoy the exhibit — complete with...
Rosilyne Bean wrote from New York Comic Con 2017: New York Times tech columnist and book review editor Jude Biersdorfer hosted this year’s Queer Pop Culture panel at NYCC. She was joined by several artists, activists, and cosplayers in discussion of their experiences and work in the...

With less than a week to go before the series premiere, attendees at this year’s New York Comic Con were given a chance to confront some of the real-life horrors that await them in Amazon‘s new horror anthology series Lore. Based on Aaron Mahnke‘s award-winning podcast that...
Riding high off of the critical and ratings success of American Gods‘ first season and only a few months before filming commences on Season 2 of the Starz series, stars Ricky Whittle (Shadow Moon), Yetide Badaki (Bilquis) and Pablo Schreiber (Mad Sweeney) descended upon New York Comic Con...
Artist Kristin Cumings is no stranger to using jelly beans in her artwork. She’s been using the medium in her work for some time now, creating portraits and other art with the delicious snack food. This in turn got the attention of Jelly Belly, who has since hired Cumings to create a...
Since its founding, Castle Rock has been a home for the horrific, from serial killers, and a demonic St. Bernard to a tempting devil. It’s a town filled with secrets, so it’s only fitting that Hulu‘s upcoming psychological-horror drama series from J.J. Abrams keep that...
Browsing the floor of New York Comic Con, I managed across a familiar face in Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night from Koji Igarashi and published by 505 Games. I got a good shot at their demo as I made my way through the Metroidvania adventure. The graphics are solid and the sound is great — a...
A short little gallery from the floor of NYCC 2017 — as this area was set up near the Star Wars display for people to chill out and play older games like Double Dragon and Rock’em Sock’em Robots. A cool and free way to chill out if you’re tired of wading your way through the...
Bleeding Cool’s Lauren Sisselman is usually the Arcade Chaser around here, but Gavin Sheehan gave it a go at New York Comic Con 2017. In the middle of all the chaos that is NYCC, I decided to take a break and browsed the Syfy lounge just below the press area. Many of us got to hang out and...
One of the cool little booths I got to visit at New York Comic Con was manned by D3 Go! This company is working on a couple new app games for tablet, one for Magic: The Gathering and one with an X-Men battling theme. Both of them revolve around the puzzle completion type of combat where you...
To say that the line to try out the Justice League VR was ridiculous is an understatement. I got lucky on the third day of New York Comic Con and was able to only wait 45 minutes to get into the room. Aside from a weird Batcave setup that didn’t look all that convincing, we were all taken...
Yesterday evening, Nintendo held the finals for the Nintendo World Championships, live at the Manhattan Center during NYCC. A total of 24 people made it into the finals, which included a couple familiar gaming faces, some celebrities, and the returning champion. The last championship was held...
In honor of New York Comic Con 2017 (translation: we’re all busy as $#!& to be living normal lives between October 5th-8th), we’re going to be doing things a little differently this week. Because a decent chunk of these five days has been dedicated elsewhere, we’re going...
One of the cool items Capcom brought to NYCC was Monster Hunter World, where they basically wanted people to get their hands on the four-player co-op system and try hunting down a monster on their own as a team. The world, while beautiful, is not really open world in this system as its clear...
