DC announced their floor and panels schedule for the New York Comic Con (NYCC).
NYCC opens from October 9 through the 12th. DC will be at booth #4365 in the exhibit hall with giveaways, con-exclusive merchandise, and other activities.
Giveaways and Con-Exclusive Merch
DC is giving away a 1940s-style Daily Planet newspaper. The Daily Planet features art and ads for upcoming DC storylines and comics, as well as DC’s panel schedule and events at NYCC 2025.
For collectors, the DC booth will have a ton of show-exclusive prints. DC will be selling special edition foil covers for Batman #1 with new covers by Nick Dragotta and Nikolas Draper-Ivey. Also, there is a special edition Absolute Evil #1 gatefold cover by David Nakayama, a limited number of DC K.O. #1 “Lights Out” Polybag Special Edition containing one of three randomly inserted foil variant covers. Additionally, the poly bag will also include sketches by artist Scott Koblish. Finally, they’ll sell a foil DC/AEW variant cover of DC K.O. #1 by Dan Mora.
DC will also sell the hardcovers for Absolute Batman Vol. 1: The Zoo, Absolute Superman Vol. 1: The Last Dust of Krypton, and Absolute Wonder Woman Vol. 1: The Last Amazon, with a Jim Lee-drawn dust jacket. Also, they will sell art prints of Batman #163 covers by Lee. These art prints and hardcovers sound like the same editions that DC sold at San Diego Comic Con, but now fans on the East Coast can get their copies.
