NEW YORK COMIC-CON 2009 (06-08 Feb 2009)
New York Comic-Con Ranks #2 in NYC Events
Friday, May 8, 2009
The New York Comic-Con (NYCC) is now the second biggest event in New York, according to Crain’s New York Business.
This year the show, which had 77,000 attendees, beat out the New York
City Marathon by 2,000 guests for the second spot. The New York
National Boat Show came in fourth place, the spot NYCC occupied last
year.
The New York International Auto Show, a perennial in the top spot,
was far and away the number one attraction with an estimated 1,000,000
attendees.
For 2010 and going forward, the NYCC has moved to a fall schedule beginning with October 8-10, 2010.

Pizza time with George Perez
Posted by David Torres Tuesday February 10, 2009 7:12 pm
I am a graduate of Cardinal Hayes High School
in the Bronx. We have a large list of alumni who have gone on to bigger
and better things. Some of these people include Regis Philbin, Martin
Scorsese, and comic book legend George Perez. My brother Danny is an
art teacher there and he informed me a few months back that the school
was able to secure George Perez to come in and do a talk with the art
students of the school. My brother told me to come in and meet him.
Prior to meeting Mr. Perez at my old high school, I first met him at the NY Comic Con. In my blog
about the Con, I mentioned that I was going to get a bunch of books
signed and graded by CGC and I got my copy of “Crisis on Infinite
Earths” #7 signed by Mr. Perez.
On Monday, Mr. Perez arrived at the school where he was greeted
outside of my brother’s classroom with a display of reproductions of
numerous comic book covers of his work through the years - some of the
covers that were reproduced were used from my collection.

NEW YORK COMIC-CON 2009 (06-08 Feb 2009)
'Fantasy Economy' Up at NYCC
Nearly 77,000
Published: 02/09/2009 01:59am
Nearly 77,000 (unique) fans thronged the Jacob Javits Center in New
York over the weekend for New York Comic Con, smashing last year’s
record (see “ NYCC Rocks”) with over 15% growth. Saturday tickets sold out despite a bigger space than last year’s, and Friday and Sunday were also both busy. As
a harried Bob Chapman of Graphitti Designs told us while doing land
office business on Saturday afternoon, “Inside these walls the
‘fantasy’ economy is perfect. Outside the doors of the convention the economy sucks.”
“We were thrilled
with the crowd, and think we delivered,” Lance Fensterman, the Reed VP
in charge of NYCC told us on Sunday night after the show closed. “We
thought if we built something that was worthy, the fans would reward us
with their tightly kept dollars, and I’m really proud that our team
built something that was worth those dollars. On the other side, the exhibitors trusted us to build their business and it paid off.”

Posted by grifter at 8:34 PM Sunday, February 8, 2009
came in late today, and still had to be shepherded thru the holding area. WTFF??
anyway,
still made it in good time; my choices haven't started signing yet. but
that's only because ... i kinda put the DC booth on the low priority.
the 3 PM Geoff Johns signing was the only one i intended to go to. unfortunately, George Perez
was nowhere on the list, which pretty much made 4 big books in my
backpack a little more than deadweight (thanks a lot, DC). i gotta
change that.
(excerpt)
bummer: no George Perez!!!
if i knew beforehand that he was gonna appear only on Friday, i woulda
brought my Perez books now, wouldn't i?? damn you, DC!
to save some pride, i got colorist Tom Smith for JLA/Avengers (and then completely forgot about Infinite Crisis), and Ordway for IC and CoIE. Infinity Gauntlet came home empty (it already had a Starlin signature from years ago). those four books were already like a third of my body weight.

Posted by David Torres Categories: Conventions, Editorials
This weekend was the 4th annual New York Comic Con (NYCC).
(excerpt)
I got two other books signed at the convention. I got “Batman: The
Cult” #1 signed by Jim Starlin and I got “Crisis on Infinite Earths” #7
signed by George Perez. Perez and I have something in common as we both
graduated from the same high school: Cardinal Hayes High School.
Cardinal Hayes will be celebrating the work of George Perez on February
9th. My older brother is a teacher there and he said he’d get me in.
I can’t stay the whole day because I couldn’t get off for work. If
anything interesting happens, I’ll write about it.

NYCC LIVE: Sunday Conversation with Dan DiDio

Sun, February 8th, 2009 at 9:23AM PST
Welcome
to Day 3 of CBR's live coverage from the New York Comic Con. Dan DiDio
is hosting his regular Sunday conversation this afternoon, and we will
be bringing you live updates throughout the hour. Hit "refresh" to see
where the conversation goes.
(excerpt)
Dan Slott and Tom Brevoort then joined the panel. "Dan Slott is hear to explain 'Final Crisis' #7," DiDio joked.
DiDio went down the panel for exciting cover choices. "I like a
symbolic cover," Carlin said, after joking that he likes "covers where
everything is spelled correctly--as the editor who spelled Metropolis
wrong on a cover..."
Brevoort said he was most excited by the cover of "JLA/Avengers" #3,
which featured every Leaguer and every Avengers. George Perez
apparently sold the art almost immediately, and requested Marvel to
send him the art back. An intern, however, packed a Xerox. "George
called back, his voice was three octaves higher!" Brevoort said.

Ahh, the smell of sweaty geeks in the morning. I know it well. You
do too if you're a frequent visitor of comic book conventions. It's
something we all must grin and bear, for we are the dedicated. The
devoted. The sometimes wacky. We are comic book fans.
This is the fourth New York Comic Con,
and the third I've successfully attended (Don't mention the first, I'll
probably cry). A few things have changed since last year. Most
importantly, all the panels have been moved to the right side of the
building. That doesn't sound like a big deal, but after two years of
getting familiar with your surroundings it's hard to make yourself head
in the correct direction. Even in my speedy wheelchair, I was late to
the first panel I planned on attending - Dark Horse Comics.
(excerpt)
It was very casual, and I'm expecting a lot more
people at tomorrow's DC Universe panel, but I like it this way. Fans
getting to question creators and getting immediate answers. Geoff Johns
should just record himself saying, "Blackest Night" to save himself
some effort. Nine times out of ten, that will be his answer, so think
hard before you waste your question. My sympathies go out to Dan Didio
who was dedicated enough to wear a shirt for each color of the Lantern
spectrum in the already stuffy room. He took one off each time the
emotion suited him. The coolest part of this panel for me was getting
to see such amazing talents like Greg Rucka, James Robinson and George
Perez for the first time.

Dark Reign and the X-Men. Cup of Joe and a panel focusing on the
company's 70th anniversary are also scheduled. DC focuses on Superman
as well as its traditional "DC Nation" panel on the first day and
shifts to Batman
and the larger DC Universe later in the weekend. On the movie front we
know Pixar is here with over half of its next film, Up. Presentations
for Friday the 13th, Terminator Salvation and Watchmen are planned as
well. TV highlights should include Dollhouse and Fringe, just to name a
couple. As we hear the information, we'll pass it along. Want to see

NYCC '09 - DC Comics' 'DC Nation' Panel
By Albert Ching posted: 06 February 2009 07:03 pm ET
It’s the first DC Nation panel
(the publisher’s Q&A-heavy convention staple) of the year at 2009’s
first major show, and it’s also the first DC-wide panel since a certain
mini-series titled Final Crisis wrapped. There should be some stuff to talk about, no?
Held at 7:15 p.m., a quarter-hour after the New York Comic Con exhibit
hall closed, a packed crowd — standing attendees dotted the meeting
room’s walls — awaited some shreds of info on the latest happenings of
the DC Universe (or some attention paid to their various gripes.
Led, as usual, by DC Universe Senior VP/Executive Editor Dan DiDio, the
panel also included legendary penciler George Perez (who received claps
from the crowd when he arrived first; ”For once, I’m early,” the artist
said), VP of Sales Bob Wayne, Senior Story Editor Ian Sattler (“He’s
going to explain to you all the minute details not in Final Crisis,” DiDio joked), Final Crisis/Blackest Night editor Eddie Berganza and writers Greg Rucka, James Robinson, Sterling Gates, and Geoff Johns.
(excerpt)
DiDio then brought a fan in a Kid Flash outfit up to the dais to pose
for a picture with George Perez. The fan asked about the future of Bart
Allen: "He'll be in the 31st century in Legion of Three Worlds," said Johns, adding that he'll be back in the Flash universe as of Flash: Rebirth.
"If Wally West is just going to be in Titans and guest starring in Flash, aren't you basically making him Kid Flash again?" "Who said those would be the only books he'd be in," asked Sattler.

[NYCC] MARV WOLFMAN JOINS THE 'DC UNIVERSE ONLINE' TEAM
The super scribe signs on to add his creative flair to the highly anticipated gaming experience
By Steve Sunu Posted 2/6/200
Sony Online Entertainment came out with
guns blazing at the New York Comic-Con by announcing that DC Comics
legend Marv Wolfman (The New Teen Titans) had been brought onto the project to write and flesh out its online version of the DC Universe. Wizard spoke to Wolfman about his involvement (and excitement) with DC Universe Online.
WIZARD: How did you get involved in DC Universe Online?
WOLFMAN: Obviously in one way or another, I've been involved with
DC since 1967 when I wrote my very first story for them as a pre-born
baby. In the last couple of years, I've been writing a lot of video
games for various companies, and the cross-pollination seemed to make
sense in a lot of ways–most of the games that I've done have been DC
driven in one fashion or another. The idea that I would be working on a
video game made sense. The fact that it was an MMO made even more
sense, because you can actually get into the characters themselves and
do grand adventures as if you were in the various cities. As a game
player, I thought this would be beautiful.

WONDER WOMAN DVD (Mar 2009)
NYCC '09 - Wonder Woman Animated Premiere & Panel
By Sarah Jaffe posted: 07 February 2009 12:23 am ET
Wonder Woman is a cultural icon as much as she is a comic book
character, and her popularity led to long lines outside the IGN Theater
at the New York Comic Con Friday evening waiting on the screening of the first Wonder Woman animated feature.
Animation for adults has a long tradition outside of the U.S., but it
has yet to catch on in a big way in this country. Films like this could
do a lot to change that, drawing on the anime tradition and its style
of action without mimicking the art style. Its action was well-done,
slick and speedy with plenty of violence and explosions but still PG
(though the sex jokes might go over the heads of kids).

Welcome to CBR's live coverage of the DC Comics' DC Nation
panel at New York Comic Con. Panelists include Peter Tomasi, Geoff
Johns, Sterling Gates, James Robinson, Greg Rucka, Eddie Berganza, Ian
Sattler, Bob Wayne and George Peréz. The panel is moderated by Dan
DiDio.
(excerpt)
How does George Peréz feel about the sequels to "Crisis on Infinite Earths?"
George Peréz: When I first found out about "Infinite Crisis," it was
very flattering. I may not agree or understand a lot of what has been
going on. But to have that kind of impact -- that they still remember
it! Even if they change every single thing Marv Wolfman and I did in
"Crisis," it's the starting point. After a quarter of a century since
drawing that book, it's very flattering that it's still worth
addressing. Every time there seems to be a "Crisis" book, they approach
me to doing something. I'm very grateful. However it turns out, love it
or hate it, my name is always going to be next to that asterisk
somewhere. I'm grateful they're keeping me alive!

NYCC Expecting 'Fairly Significant Growth'
Published: 01/04/2009, Last Updated: 01/05/2009 01:23am
Lance
Fensterman, the Reed Exhibitions VP in charge of New York Comic Con,
told us he’s expecting “fairly significant growth” for the show this
year in its earlier dates of February 6-8. We
caught up with Fensterman late last week to ask about expectations for
the show, the impact of the earlier dates, and other changes for this
year’s event.
The show’s over two months earlier than it was last year. What does that mean for the show?
It means we’re crossing our fingers a little bit about the weather. We always worry about that this time of year. We’ve
arranged to have queuing halls for all the fans so nobody’s going to be
standing outside--they’ll be inside where it’s nice and warm.
(excerpt)
In terms of that crowding question, what’s the over-all space the show is going to have this year versus last year. Is that up, down, or about the same?
It’s actually up about twenty per cent. We have the same halls for the exhibit floor but our panel rooms will now be directly below the exhibit floor. Last year they were on the other end of the building. That does two things. One, it’s more convenient for our fans. Two, that space down there is actually larger than at the other end of the building by roughly fifteen thousand square feet. In addition to that we’ve added the Galleria, which is up above the show floor, which we had two years ago. We used that space for Artists Alley. We won’t be using it for Artists Alley, but that is an additional sixty thousand square feet that we’ve added to the show. There’s significant growth in terms of room to move around and room for exhibits, activities, and panels.
