Siege Got It Right

Lately Marvel has been on a binge of creating miniseries and events.  It seems that they write stories more for the eventually that the story will be turned into a collected trade, than to write books for single issues.   In the past 5 years Marvel has released an event every year and every event is supposed to change the status quo of Marvel.   Siege is an event written by Brian Michael Bendis and this event wrapped up all the events that occurred in the past years.  That’s right kids; this series is the culminating story from Bendis that goes all the way back from House of M and then to Secret Invasion.

New York Comic Con to Take Place Over Four Days in 2011

After hosting nearly 100,000 fans, guests, and professionals at the 2010 edition of New York Comic Con (NYCC), organizers of the annual event have decided to extend the length of the show by an extra day in 2011. This way, they can accommodate even more attendees and provide additional programming and business opportunities for the artists, creators, and exhibitors who form the foundation of the show’s success. This likely has something to do with the fact that the event has experienced exponential growth since its launch in 2006. 

The show now occupies the entire Jacob K. Javits Center and the addition of another day of activity assures that the convention can continue its expansion into one of the largest annual events in New York City. New York Comic Con is a celebration of the pop culture universe, covering comic books, anime, movies, television, toys, and games. It attracts fans from around the world, exhibitors and guests from the full spectrum of popular culture, and tremendous media attention — almost 4,000 members of the press attended the show in 2010 and stories appeared in hundreds of outlets ranging from blogs to live national TV broadcasts.
