Suit Up And Make History @ NEW YORK COMIC CON

SEPTEMBER 9, 2026 – Suit up, Spidey fans! Jazwares, an official costume partner for Marvel’s Spider-Man, is teaming up with Disney Consumer Products to host a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS® official attempt for the largest gathering of people dressed as Spider-Man during New York Comic Con (NYCC) 2026. The event arrives on the heels of the Super Hero’s latest blockbuster chapter and celebrates the enduring, cross-generational, global appeal of Spider-Man.

Taking place on Thursday, October 8, at the Javits Center, the family-friendly experience invites fans to become part of Superhero history. Attendees will gather in one place to break the current record of 685 participants and turn NYCC into the largest real-world gathering of costumed Spider-Man fans. The official record attempt is scheduled to take place around 8:00 PM ET at the NYCC Main Stage, with an official Guinness World Records adjudicator on-site to verify the results. As a celebration of one of the world’s most beloved superheroes, the event will unite fans of all ages under one iconic red-and-blue suit.

“Spider-Man has always been about the power of everyday people stepping up to do something extraordinary. It’s why I’m thrilled to host this moment and lead the fan community in making pop-culture history live at NYCC,” said Jeremy Padawer, President of Jazwares. “As an official costume partner for Marvel, this is our way of bringing that spirit to life for fans in a way only Jazwares can do.

Once suited up, fans can begin lining up for the attempt at 6:30 PM in the Main Stage Queue Hall. The official record attempt will take place around 8:00 PM. 

Fans can also bring their own Spider-Man suits, provided they meet the official Guinness World Records guidelines. Costumes must represent a complete classic Spider-Man look, including the signature red mask, boots, and red-and-blue suit with web detailing and spider emblem. Alternate suits from officially recognized comics or films are welcome, but all participants must be dressed as Spider-Man. Other characters from the Spider-Man universe will not be counted toward the record.

Whether longtime comic fans, families, or first-time conventiongoers, attendees will have the chance to be part of a once-in-a-lifetime moment during one of the biggest pop culture weekends of the year. With thousands expected to gather, Jazwares aims not only to break the record but shatter it, turning New York Comic Con into a sea of Spider-Man suits and a global symbol of fandom at its most powerful.

Lenni Reviews: “Champion of the Rose” Vol. 1, by Cat Aquino & Dominique Duran

(Image Source)

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Princess Rosa’s brother tragically dies, making her hair to the throne of the Empire of Sagrada. As the largest kingdom in the Known World, Rosa looks forward to serving her people and the Dying God they all worship but instead, her father holds a tournament where the prize is her hand in marriage. Desperate to become queen and make real change, she enlists Rey as her champion. Rey is a swordsman from one of the kingdom’s colonies and only wants to earn enough money to return to his native lands.

It’s interesting that Rosa is a mixed-race princess of a kingdom fueled by colonizing others. She has to come to terms with what her kingdom has done to people who look just like her. She may have been relatively sheltered as a princess, but that doesn’t stop the whispers and judgment. Rey is a transman and a fucking badass, who literally and figuratively is infected by the evils done by those who’ve conquered his people. The combat is fantastically done. It’s ruthless and dark. It reminds me of Centuria, making this a damn good dark fantasy. 4.5 out of 5.

Batman: KnightFall Part Review

Batman: Knightfall – Part 1: Knightfall is an R-rated animated movie directed by Jeff Wamester. It adapts the famous 1993 DC Comics storyline where Bane destroys Arkham Asylum. He frees Gotham's villains to exhaust Bruce Wayne before a final showdown

Lenni Reviews: “Lynx” Vol. 1, by Samuel Sattin & Tokitokoro

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

After a climate disaster known as The Regression, humanity is stuck in a perpetual winter. Detective Lynx Takuma and her enhanced cat partner Skua, have investigating a series of deaths where strange feathers were found at the scene.

While this throws a lot of lore and abilities and backstories at you, it feels a bit flat. I think it’s because a lot of the backgrounds are solid whites. But it is a winter dystopia so I can’t judge it too hard for that. I do love a hard boiled lesbian detective with cool powers and a weird mystery brewing in a complicated world. I think it’s pretty cool so far! 3.5 out of 5.

Lenni Reviews: “Kagurabachi” Vol. 2, by Takeru Hokazono

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

The Hishaku, who are the ones who killed Chihiro’s father, have captured Char and Chihiro goes to rescue her before they can use her unique abilities for evil.

This volume focuses on defeating Genichi Sojo, who possesses the Cloud Gouger blade. They have one heck of a battle and it’s fantastically done. They fit in a lot of lore about the weapons while the actions takes place. There isn’t a chunk of exposition when it comes to back story or the sword’s powers. I’m also glad we get to see more of Chihiro’s father in the flashbacks. He’s got a fun personality and balances out his very stoic son. 4 out of 5.

Lenni Reviews: “Books, Iced Coffee & a Side of Dragons” by Amanda Lovelace & Raquel Travé

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Lucinda owns Little Lighthouse Books, a struggling book store. She deals daily with the antics of her dragon and her crush on Aster, the owner of the coffee shop next door.

This does have “Tea Dragon Society” vibes in that this book has the coziest vibes and beautiful colors. The drama is very low stakes and grounded. This has great representation and while it’s not subtle, it doesn’t need to be. It’s a cute little sapphic romance and a slice of magical joy that’s sorely needed. 4.5 out of 5.

Flame Con 2026

I had the pleasure of being invited to Flame Con again this year, and I was so excited! The panels I decided to attend were “Knight Life: Exploring and Crafting Queer Knight Tales” and “Kiana Khansmith with PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE I DON’T WANT TO BE A MAGICAL GIRL” because I love that web series. I love indie animation and indie creators in general, so it was so cool to be there. I was also interested in “Graphic Pride: Celebrating BL, Yuri, & LGBTQ+ Manga with Kodansha” but it’s hard to gauge what will be cool for a library collection. I’ll just have to settle for nabbing new titles for myself.

Here’s some fun photos of what I saw and what I bought:

I’m really excited to dig into that ARC of “Dead New World” since it sounds like a crazy selection of genres and I love genre-mashing.

All in all, it was a great time, as usual. Everyone there is always so welcoming and sweet; all of it is such a comfortable atmosphere. If you’re into smaller cons, this is a fantastic one to attend and I cant wait for next year!

My Adventures With Superman Season 3 Ep 2 Review

Lenni Reviews: "Spacewalking With You" Vol. 1, by Inuhiko Doronoda

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Kobayashi is an underachiever, completely apathetic towards school, and can't seem to focus. When a new student, Uno, arrives, Uno is overly enthusiastic and on the spectrum, opening Kobayashi's eyes to different ways of thinking and doing things.

After so much yaoi and romance, I can't express how refreshing this beautiful friendship is. I know what I pick to read, and I'm not ashamed of it, but I will say this is a breath of fresh air. I admit to tearing up. So far, the whole cast is fantastic and positive. Uno has his breakdowns, and the art represents this as well as a neurotypical person like me can say they do. Those are the most intense parts. It's as if you took the romance (and possible death omens) out of Insomniacs After School and replaced it with mismatched friends. I love it! 4 out of 5.

Lenni Reviews: “Steel of the Celestial Shadows” Vol. 1, by Daruma Matsuura

Ryundo Konosuke is destitute, homeless, and cursed to repel any metal he is near so he can’t wield a sword. As his mother wished for him to become a warrior, his dreams seem impossible and he decides to take his own life. However, he is saved by a mysterious woman who offers to marry him.

As the volume unfolds, I managed to get attached to Konosuke and wanted him to be happy. It’s a cute story so far; his new wife is genuine and they get alone well. The art is expressive and the fantasy elements leave just enough unsolved to make you keep reading and find out more. It’s intriguing. 3.5 out of 5.

Chihiro Rokuhira, son of the most famous swordsmith in the land, Kunishige . When Kunishige is killed and six of his enchanted swords stolen, Chihiro goes on a mission to recover the lost blades and avenge his father’s murder.

Not gonna lie, I was expecting a period piece like Steel of Celestial Shadows but the clothes are more modern and there are flip phones. This kicks off with some great battles and lore. A lot was unexpected and fresh; Kunishige is kind of a goof instead of a grumpy, vengeance driven sword master and I really like it. The art style give us some beautiful fights and abilities and in general has a fast pace with a wide variety of characters. I look forward to more. 4 out of 5.
