Ani-Gamers will once again be invading the East Coast convention scene, this time at the New York Comic Con this weekend, from Friday, February 6th to Sunday the 8th. As usual, Uncle Yo will be there to provide his popular comedy routine, and I will be there as press, killing myself with far too many events to report on.
If you’re going to be at the convention, and you happen to see us, you’d better come over and say hi. I’ll be meeting up with the folks from some other blogs like Anime Almanac, Anime Vice, Japanator, Manga.About.com, MangaBlog, and Reverse Thieves, so you’ll probably see me next to them in the front row of every anime industry panel. Uncle Yo can be found… at his panel of course! It’s on Saturday from 12:30PM to 1:00PM, so get over there to see his performance. (For those interested in finding us, I look like this, and Uncle Yo looks like this)
As for the content that I’ll be getting out of NYCC, let’s just describe it as NYAF08 on steroids. I’ve got over a dozen events I’ll be going to that are directly related to the blog (half of which are industry news panels), so as long as I’m still alive by the end of the weekend, expect about a month’s work of ongoing features thanks to Comic Con. For those attending, see you there! For those not attending, make sure to follow my Twitter for the occasional live updates, and use the NYCC09 tag for all con coverage.
