NY ComicCon 2012

So, last weekend (as I write this) I attended the New York Comic Con and well, not only did I have a greet weekend (I hung out with a couple of new-found friends Bill Baker & Joel Meadows (Publisher/Editor of Tripwire Magazine). Turns out we were three Journalists, comicbook fans, and cinephiles having something of a great weekend together. Anyway, here are just some of the pics that I took over the weekend.

First up are The Avengers and some Patriotic Babes

This was the only Spider-Woman I saw

Spidey recently turned 50, and this is the birthday card that Marvel got him.

It was signed by numerous Spidey-Fans, with the hope of getting it into the Guinness Book of World Records (and of course, I signed it too!).

Naturally enough there were also a bunch of Spideys on hand (this one brought a friend)

This one stopped by Fay Felix’s Bronx Heroes Con table

Then he had to fight off none other than Wilson Fisk, The Kingpin!

Eventually though Spidey was apparently defeated by...who is this, Zero of the GI Joes?

Lastly, there was at least one Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly) on hand to carry on!

And of course an Ultimate Spider-Man (Miles Morales)

Teenage Mutant ninja Avengers

Nobody Loves the Hulk!

“Nobody Loves The Hulk” by the Traits, 1969.

Poor Bruce Banner 

Was working in his laboratory

When he saw Rick Jones

About to go up in a blaze of glory.

Well he saved the boy 

But what a change.

The explosion made him feel so strange

for his molecules had been rearranged 

into The Hulk! The Hulk!

The Hulk is a monster who is 

Ugly, oversized and green.

His strength is fantastic

And his disposition’s mighty mean.

And whenever people see him 

All they do is run around and scream

‘Cause

Nobody loves The Hulk!

Nobody loves The Hulk!

Nobody loves The Hulk!

(’Cept you and me)

We don’t allow no green skin people in here!

The Pentagon announced that the

Hulk has got to be destroyed.

They shot at him with H-bombs but

The Hulk only became annoyed.

All he wanted to do was settle down

and get employed.

But

Nobody loves The Hulk!

Nobody loves The Hulk!

Nobody loves The Hulk!

Avengers Flash Drives

OK, these are just wicked cool!

It's Breast Cancer Awareness month!

Who watches the Watchmen?

Here is a Wally Wood image that originally appeared in TV Guide around 1968 or ’69. How prophetic, eh?
