The New York Comic Con was certainly adventure time! Photo by Steven Leung (www.flickr.com/gluetree)
So the 2011 New York Comic Con has come and gone. I made the trek up this past Friday and Saturday. I certainly had a much better time then last year’s. Not that I didn’t enjoy myself last year, but I just wasn’t having it.
There are a bunch of pics, purchases, sketches and such that I’d love to talk about, but I’m really pooped. So I’ll just leave you with this.
Jem is totally outrageous. In hindsight, I really should have gotten my picture taken with her. Picture by Edward Liu (www.flickr.com/edwick)
One of the weirder things that I found myself intrigued with is Jem. After stumbling across the cartoon this summer on the Hub, I’ve become totally smitten with this totally outrageous character. Seriously.
I’ve wound up staying waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay past my bedtime to watch the show because it is surreal. Anyway, they had a display case of vintage toys and marketing stuff. I wonder if there will be some new Jem stuff in the future. Or, at the very least, a re-release of the cartoons on DVD, so I won’t have to leave my girlfriend’s DVR filled with it.
So I’m going to leave you with this.
We can make a difference.
Ridiculously Awesome 
I’ve been watching all these cartoons on the HUB with my two youngest girls every morning before school and they love it.I find myself getting into it more than them at times.I put JEM up there with She-Ra and Sailor Moon,all were quality cartoons!
It’s a great show. So odd but really fun to watch.
I got here by Googling “I survived Comic Con”.
I made it through too, NYCC 2011 was absolutely crazy!
Also, Jem looks insane. And awesome.
Thanks for stopping by, Jourdy. What was your favorite part of NYCC?
Hmmm, hard to say, probably meeting the guys at Robot Entertainment, they did Orcs Must Die. If you click my name, you can see that I actually got to interview them :D!
It was EPIC, I can’t wait for CES!
