My initial thought after seeing the thousands being turned away by the fire marshals
was whether the promoters did their research on the average attendence size of a
comic book convention in a major city. WizardWorld usually has an attendence of over
10,000 to 20,000-plus. Yet they only used a portion of the Javits Center. So both
Saturday and Sunday were extremely packed. However besides that drawback, I would
say those that were able to get in, including ourselves, had a great time.

The New York Comic-Con did a great job in trying to accomodate for every amusement
for the ticket buyers. Everything from free video game entertainment (provided by
New York-Tokyo) to card game tournaments were available, as well myriad of
comics to purchase from vendors. Many writers and artists from DC and Marvel were
available for autographs and questions. Many independents were showcasing their
latest projects.

There were also many shows and competitions available to watch. Some of the
more memorable ones were fighting demonstrations from the New York City based
Jedi Academy and a cosplay competition.
