NYCC's New York Super Week kicks off tomorrow and runs right up into the New York Comic Con. What did Lance Fensterman, Senior Global Vice President, have to say about the event?
"New York Super Week is the natural growth and evolution of everything pop culture, including New York Comic Con. This week expands beyond this stellar list – we have over 100 events across the city, bringing the fan experience to the next level across all five boroughs. There is something literally for everyone, it’s truly worth checking out the website to see what we have lined up that speaks to your pop culture or geek needs.
New York Super Week is not just a prelude to New York Comic Con, it’s a true standalone celebration that will bring the best in pop culture to iconic New York City landmarks. New York Comic Con in itself, continues to grow, we are by far the single biggest pop culture event on the East Coast. We take over the Javits Center and host more than 850 exhibitors and some of the biggest names in entertainment, comics, books, TV and film, this year we are looking to amaze."
Not only do we have the Top 10 Line Up for the event, we also have tickets to the Sonic Boom Festival and The Karate Kid for two lucky CBM users (and their guests)! Take a look at the events below and then find out how to win tickets to the two events!
