Hangout 10/9: New York Comic Con Live report + Q&A Talkback

From Leonards site:

“…I’m walkin’ here, I’m walkin’ here!”

..and walking en masse, too – the reports are coming in that this years New York Comic Con is absolutely one for the ages, with record crowds filling panel rooms, exhibition spaces, off-site rooms and – most excitingly – the Artist Alley location. By all accounts, it’s been rammed!

Which means it’s probably for the best that Leonard didn’t get on the plane as the last thing he or anybody needs is for him to be Patient Zero of a god-awful plague virus with which he was struck down with last weekend, prompting the shows absence last Sunday. Still, he’s (kind of) recovered and is looking forward to checking in with Alyssa Franks (Friends Of Comic Con Forum) and Kevin Walwyn Editor-in-Chief of the FoCCBlog, live on the show to talk about this weekends highlights.

As always, it’ll be a live report from the floor so expect plenty of surprises, special guests, podcast-bombing and Alyssa coo’ing at cosplayers. These are always a fun show and always best to watch on YouTube live – I hope you can join us.
