Big Apple Comic-Con left a sour taste in a lot of people’s mouths last weekend. It wasn’t all because of that particular convention, either. Instead, some of it was because of NEXT YEAR’s convention! We dissect the weekend as a whole and the big announcement that came last Friday, all in this episode.
