The Women And Men Of Bleeding Cool At NYCC

Hello folks. Yep, this is us, the Bleeding Cool contingent (plus a couple of stealth reporters) working at the show this week, trying to bring you back the latest and the greatest as we battle with PR representatives, unruly comic pros and tequila slammers. If you see us, say hi! We could do with the attention and recognition, frankly.

Rich Johnston is the founder and Head Writer of Bleeding Cool. He lives in London but loves New York just as much. He is flying in on Wednesday, flying out on Sunday and will be suffering from jet lag the whole time. Be kind to him. Stayting at the New Yorker hotel if you want to drop anything off for him. Aside from bed bugs.

Grace Randolph is the writer and presenter of Beyond The Trailer and was the face of The Watcher for Marvel Comics. She reports twice a week for Bleeding Cool in the Stacktastic and Between The Pages video blogs and is now writing Supurbia, about to be relaunched as an ongoing series for Boom! Studios

If you see me at NYCC I'll be more than happy to tell you why Hawkeye is the greatest Avenger ever and why Gambit would be the first casualty if I ever got control of an X-Book.  I'll be roaming the halls during Con looking for some fan-on-the-street feedback so do say hello.

Currently reading & enjoying: Hawkeye, Saga, Daredevil, Winter Soldier, Rocketeer.

Since graduating, he worked briefly as a reporter for Foster's Daily Democrat in New Hampshire, reporting on crime and municipal stories in the city of Rochester as well as interviewing Republican primary candidates, before returning to Florida and freelancing for the Pensacola News Journal. He now resides in Long Island City, writing weekly columns for Sequart.com and hoping to break into the comics scene.

Josh Kopin is a writing tutor and freelance writer with a Windy City soul, although these days he lives and works in Upstate New York. He likes comic books and television, and also movies and books, and he really likes writing about those things. He hopes you like those things too, because he likes sharing the things he likes with people. If you want to see what it is, specifically, that he likes, you should check out his tumblr. If you like comics, you should see what he has to say about them at The Long and Shortbox of It!, where he writes about, among other things, Captain America, artist's process, and the gutter.

Will Romine-o the Conqueror Hello all, it's your old pal Will Romine.  I'll be part of the Little Bleeder swarm for yet another convention.  I'll be donning the Starro costume for my 4th straight con and encourage you all to come up and give me a friendly "howdy,".  I used to allow random fandom to hug me in my giant felt suit, but I have since learned the difference between good hugs and bad hugs.  However, if you simply can't control yourself, above the waist please.  Otherwise, bring it on NYCC!

Michael McDermott is a FUBARbarian First Class and a New York Times' Best Selling author relentlessly carving away at the grand old oak that is a stable, paying gig writing and creating the comic books.  Seriously, he's 35.  His back isn't going to hold up to another 30 years of physical labor.  He'll most likely be moderately bearded and quite affable in person.

Patrick Willems is responsible for the "Afterwards They Will Explode" video feature on Bleeding Cool. He'll be traveling on the C train all the way from Brooklyn. This is his first real comic convention, so please be gentle. His goal for the con is to corner a Warner Bros. executive in a bar and convince them to let him direct a Batman Beyond movie.His Twitter handle is pwillems.

Named after James T. Kirk, he comes from a long line of Trekkers, Whovians, Fanboys and Cosplayers. In 2012 he was "The Geek" in Morgan Spurlock's Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope. This year he has also served as reviewer and correspondent at SDCC and NYCC.  He funnels all the stuff he does through SkipHarvey.com and is currently working on a webseries that will, without a doubt, be awesome.
