2nd Annual NYCC Geek-Out

Saturday, October 13th @ 7pm

Can’t make it out to Hoboken? Comic Books and Music not your cup of tea? What about zombies? The Geek Girl’s Network is hosting its 2nd Annual Geek-Out Party at the Stitch Bar in NYC. Here’s your chance to mingle with geeks from all around the country (zombie style, no less.) GGN will be handing out “Zombie Preparedness Swag Bags.” Also, did we mention we’re one of the sponsors for this event? JOIN US! More info at Geek Out NYC.

At this point, [adult swim] has yet to mention any parties of their own… but to speculate, with the amount of panels/personalities on hand for NYCC this year, there’s definitely a possibility. Stay tuned for any updates.
