Special Edition NYC: Comic Con Condensed

The New York Comic Con is one of the best comic events in the country. It brings together top notch talent, fans from all walks of life, and it’s a great chance to meet with your favorite comic authors and artists. But it’s also a colossally huge con that covers movies, TV shows, video games, and everything in between on top of that so you feel completely exhausted by the end of it.
So the fine people at ReedPOP have developed a special convention for fans that want to rub elbows in artist’s alley with artists and writers, but without the New Years in Times Square sized crowds.

Special Edition NYC (June 14 -15, 2014) at the Javits Center (655 W 34th St.) is a convention for those looking to get the NYCC experience, but with a focus on comics. Special Edition NYC celebrates New York as the birthplace of comics in an intimate setting.

Attendees include:

  • Howard Chaykin (Satellite Sam, American Flagg)
  • Mike Allred (Madman)
  • Gail Simone (Batgirl, Wonder Woman)
  • Geof Darrow (Shaolin Cowboy)
  • Chris Claremont (X-Men)
  • Kurt Busiek (Astro City)
  • Peter David (X-Factor, The Incredible Hulk)
  • David Mack (KABUKI)

The NYCC has always managed to bring together a great collection of creators in the past and Special Edition NYC will be no exception. Special Edition NYC looks to have all of NYCC’s great guests, but with less of the con-fatigue.
