NYCC 2023 is upon us! What better time to talk about the good, the bad, and the cosplay of comic book conventions? Joining Bandit Mike in a tour around the aisles is the New York Times' George Gustines. George has attended his fair share of cons and shares his thoughts on how they've evolved, what to do (and not do) in artists' alley, and the best ways to plan your time. So put on your Hulkbuster armor, grab a stack of books to be signed, and wallow in the sea of humanity that is today's show.

* This episode was recorded before the news broke of Keith Giffen's passing. Keith was a giant of the comics world, and we narrowly missed the opportunity to interview him. His creativity will be sorely missed, but his impressive and influential work remains. Our condolences to his family.
