* livers are suffering damage all over Gotham City as NYCC settles into its long weekend. That's a very festive show, and a humongous, significant one of the mainstream comics + pop culture variety. A lot of business will be done over the next few days, and not just the kind of business that involves bending elbows at some bar. It also marks the end of the traditional mainstream con season.
* it's super-interesting to me that this retro way of presenting comics conventions is a core strategy for a lot of shows that can't afford faded Hollywood stars and wrestling personalities.
