Jawas at the Javits - The Star Wars fan's guide to New York Comic Con 2024
Sure, New York Comic Con 2024 is happening at the Javits Center in Manhattan. But look for the right events and you'll find yourself in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
Popverse was there for all four days of New York Comic Con 2024, immersing ourselves in the pop culture party full of vendors, events, and celebrities from the worlds of comics, movies, TV, gaming, and more. If you couldn't make it (or are worried you missed something) click the link for our wall-to-wall coverage of the event.
Take one step into the Javits Center this week and I would bet my entire bank account you'll see a Star Wars cosplayer. As you might expect, New York Comic Con absolutely bleeds the Galaxy Far, Far Away, and you're not going to get through it without bumping into plenty of Lucasfilm-oriented cosplay and merch. But what if you don't just want Star Wars to be a chance encounter this year? What if you want to heap as much Jedi and Sith content onto your proverbial plate that will fit? That's where Popverse's guide to everything Star Wars at New York Comic Con 2024 could come in handy; check it out and let us know if you agree.
