Let the Right One In: Series Trailer

By Crime HQ

October 4, 2022

Let the Right One In is a new vampire series created in the same spirit as the internationally bestselling novel of the same name by John Ajvide Lindqvist. The series follows Mark Kane (portayed by Oscar® nominee Demián Bichir) and his daughter Eleanor Kane (Madison Taylor Baez), who turns into a vampire at the age…

Thoughts on The Following with Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy

By Laura K. Curtis

November 8, 2012

At New York Comic Con last month, I watched the premiere of The Following, Fox’s serial killer drama starring Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy, which will premiere January 21st. It’s taken this long for me to make sense of how I felt about it. There’s no question, it’s daring. It absolutely pushes the boundaries. My…

Bruce Campbell, original star and producer of the new Evil Dead remake.

Boo! It’s Bruce Campbell and the Evil Dead at New York Comic Con

By Clare Toohey

October 31, 2012

We went to the Evil Dead panel at New York Comic Con, and it was transcendant! Bruce Campbell, that’s all you need to know. Not enough? He’s the star and producer of the franchise, as well as producer of the remake, though many TV crime fans know him best as Sam Axe from Burn Notice.…

The Law of Superheroes

By Crime HQ

October 24, 2012

After the movie The Avengers came out, a few of us (nerdy) people began to wonder what superheroes were actually liable for in the event of…you know…saving the world.  For instance: After the Avengers saved New York City, would they be legally responsible for cleaning it up? Would insurance cover the damage? Would the government…

Carrie is Scary at New York Comic Con

By Jennifer Proffitt

October 20, 2012

Back in March we reported the casting of Chloe Grace Moretz as Stephen King’s iconic telekinetic teen, Carrie, in a new screen version of his novel. So, last week while the Criminal Element team ventured out to New York Comic Con and came back with a few goodies from The Walking Dead panel and myriad…

The Walking Dead, Season 3, with Rick Grimes, the Governor, Merle Dixon, and Michonne

The Walking Dead Panel Casts Shadows Over Season 3

By Crime HQ

October 15, 2012

It’s that time of year again. The leaves are turning. The wind has just a little bit more bite. And our favorite sheriff is back and fighting zombies in The Walking Dead. This past weekend, New York Comic Con was the scene for all kinds of interesting activities. As you may have heard, Criminal Element…

Classics and Modernism at New York Comic Con

By Crime HQ

October 13, 2012

Sure, there are great panels, interesting signings, cool video games, and even the chance to hobnob with your idols, but one of the best things about going to a Comic Con is just looking at the cosplayers (costumed players for those of you not familiar with the lingo). These fantastically feathered folk were everywhere, promoting…

Hard Core Cons: Finding Crime at New York Comic Con!

By Crime HQ

October 12, 2012

Her majesty looks so nice, but those handcuffs… This month is con-crazy! Of course, we adored being at Bouchercon last weekend, but upon return, we’ve got to jump right into New York Comic Con at the Javits Center in Manhattan this weekend! Being the consummate pros we are—not to mention insatiably nosy fans— we’ve stuffed…

New York Comic Con: It’s Exhaustive, I’m Exhausted

By Clare Toohey

October 18, 2011

I think I’ve missed one year of the last 5, and this year’s NYCC was the biggest ever.  I was not at the first, but I do recall when it was small enough to have to share Javits Center floor space (on only one level yet) with a travel show that was much larger and…
