New York Comic Con (NYCC) is taking over the city from Oct. 7 to 10, jam-packed with in-person and virtual programming.
The East Coast’s largest pop culture convention, held in none other than Gotham City, will bring fandoms together and feature special guests participating in panels, autograph signings and photo tops, including Cristina Vee, David Harbour, Erika Harlacher, George Takei, Hayden Christensen, John Cena, Afua Richardson, William Shatner and Adam Savage.
After last year’s fully virtual event, NYCC is returning to in-person programming, with limited capacity, mask requirements and temperature checks in place at the Javits Center.
