I had the slightly stressful pleasure of attending the 3rd annual New York Comic-Con at the Jacob Javits Convention Center, in midtown Manhattan. For three days, I attended panels, interviewed creators, and dodged streams of Storm Troopers in what was hands-down the show's biggest year yet.

With an estimated 64,000 attendees in three days, the numbers were about half that of the annual turnout for the legendary San Diego Comic-Con from which NYCC was spun. But this still was a rather staggering showing, given the show's humble and fairly recent beginnings.

I collected some of my favorite photos from NYCC at PCMag.com, including some of the tech offerings at the event. For more pictures and coverage, check out my companion post at The Daily Cross Hatch.
