i had a lot of fun this year at new york comic con. friday, i got into the peter davidson panel and popped into the gaia panel (to get codes for a friend). saturday, i did the teen wolf panel (to get pictures for another friend). saturday evening, there was no masquerade this year, so the ign theatre seemed underutilized. the only real complaint i have is that it seems that once the show floor closes, the javits center employees were all to eager to kick everyone out. at other cons, it just seems like we all linger there for a very long time. there's also not very much public space in the javits center for everyone to hang around.
