If you are a fan of comic books, superheroes, and all things sci-fi it does not get any better than Comic-Con. Comic-con is a place where all these things converge at the Javits Center in New York City each year. This year’s big event takes place October 7th-10th.
Entry is slightly different this year to help keep social distancing. Instead of purchasing a multi-day pass, also known as a badge, they have decided to offer single-day badges starting at $60. If you are unable to attend in person they are also offering digital tickets this year starting at $20.
If you have already purchased your badge, here is what you can expect (in no particular order):
