Batman 75th Anniversary Movie Costume Display at NYCC

 Batman Movie Costumes on display last weekend at New York Comic Con 2014 to celebrate 75 years of The Bat.

The new Ben Affleck Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice Cowl was also included in the display.

The Batman statue from Dark Knight Rises was also on exhibit with the Bat-Suits...

...it's really well done, impressive, and actually a bit moving in person.

NYCC 2013 - Art Acquisitions from Artist Alley and Beyond

Artist Alley at NYCC...is well...just the best. Wall to wall talent and a chance to meet(and buy art from)
the awesome comic artists, and fantastic illustrators who's work I follow virtually throughout the year.
It also seemed like even more great artists and creative vendors were spread
throughout the entire Con floor this year which was really great to see!

So, here's what came home...

I picked 'The 80's X-Men' as what I've decided to call my Traditional Annual Cliff Chiang print.
And my husband Jody, and I also always make sure we get a piece of
Captain America art - this year it's was a great new piece by Jimmy Cheung.

I loved Chrissie Zullo's Death Print the moment she shared it on FB - so it was a must have.
And while I was a little fangirly gushy when I got a sketchbook from Adam Hughes - Jody was much cooler
when he got his iconic Green Lantern/Green Arrow print from Neal Adams.

The biggest highlight had to be meeting Des Taylor...who's work we both adore. His fabulous blend of 40's Retro animation style and pin-up glamor with a modern twist is so unique and original. And as an lover of all things from the Pulp Deco Era his work really resonates with me. He was as warm, wonderful, and as cool as his art, and we had the best time chatting with him. I wasn't easy narrowing it down to the three prints we got...and was a fantastic surprise when Des threw in a bonus Supergirl sketch!

Be sure to follow Des Taylor on Facebook for his newest art
and check out his groovy motion comic 'The Trouble With Katie Rogers' on Madefire.

It was also awesome meeting another of my favorite artists Josh - aka ModHero. I have some of his work via Society6 (his stuff looks FAB on their pillows BTW) but the glossy prints he brought to NYCC really showcased his vibrant color work - had to to have the Hawkman & Hawkgirl prints.

This year's new and unexpected find - Star Wars/WWII  mash-ups prints by  
Billy Ludwig (Impale Design @ Thirteenth Floor) over in The Block. I always dig these type of
alt history photos when they make the rounds online - at last I have some for the living room wall!

Tempting Toys & Collectible Favorites from NYCC 2013

NYCC always offers a great chance to see the toys and figures I've been viewing 

online up-close, in person, and in all their tempting glory.

The Mara Jade Bishoujo figure from Kotobukiya is an absolute must have.

And actually seeing the amazing detail and substantial scale of  the Square Enix Play Arts KAI figures suddenly made their high price points more understandable - and now I think I really need the Wonder Woman fig...at least...

The new Play Arts Star Trek figures look great.

(Even with my attempt at Instagram lens flare)

And here are the promo photos of the new Aliens figures - since my own photos all ended 

up a muddled glare fest - they were even more spectacular in person.

 

The new Medicom RAH DC Figures at the Diamond Select booth looked beautiful.

Especially love, LOVE, the classic look Harley figure.

Sadly we weren't able to make the Diamond Select Collectibles Panel which included the reveal 

of this fantastic Batman '66 bust by our friend (and Master Sculptor) Jean St Jean. 

He's creating the companion Robin '66 bust as well - and will also be working on a new Sin City line.

Over at Mattel - the Batman '66 Batmobile looks as Retro-tastic as the real thing...

...and the Classic Movie 80's Superman and 90's Burton Batman figures were just outstanding.

Yes Anime had a big display of  Super Alloy Figures -  with super impressive Justice League figures...

 ...as well as a huge array of  equally impressive Iron Man figs.

My favorite prop replica this year - the Green Arrow "Injustice" Bow & Arrow Arsenal Display

from game weapon prop replica makers Project TriForce.

With eFX Inc's beautiful gleaming Thor helm coming in a close 2nd.
