New York Comic Con Highlights & Recap



TOKYOPOP Takes a Bite Out of the Big Apple!
 
Los Angeles-based TOKYOPOP took on New York last weekend at New York Comic-Con, the East Coast’s largest pop culture convention. An estimated 64,000 attendees took in the dynamic sites and sounds of Comic-Con at the Jacob Javits Convention Center.

More than 20 talented original manga creators participated in a three-days of exciting panels at the TOKYOPOP booth on topics ranging from creating art and storytelling, to the role of humor in manga. In addition, TOKYOPOP creators signed numerous books, cards, and exclusive posters for crowds of manga fans and convention attendees.


TOKYOPOP’s Gothic & Lolita Bible also had an impressive presence at New York Comic-Con, including: a flower-adorned pavilion with a swing for photo ops and daily games of Hello Kitty BINGO, panel discussions on the business aspects of Gothic & Lolita clothing design and creation, and a fabulous fashion show featuring the designs of American Gothic & Lolita designers.


 



Just added, the Gothic and Lolita Bible Slide show, check it out...




Famed Sgt. Frog character Keroro also made a special appearance at the show, and helped distribute prizes during the popular Sgt. Frog/Gakuen Alice Spin n’ Win Prize Giveaway.
