New York Comic Con is officially amongst us! This morning, Funko kicked off the spooktacular fan event with an exclusive press breakfast at Frightmare on Fun Street, their immersive booth (#1419) experience, featuring special appearances by Elvira (Cassandra Peterson, ‘Mistress of the Dark’) and Darryl McDaniels from the iconic hip hop group Run-D.M.C.
Held before the show floor opened to the public, the exclusive press preview featured a Halloween-inspired show led by Funko Founder and SVP of Entertainment Mike Becker and Dracula Dave (Dave Beré, Vice President of Brand & Marketing).
The team showcased the latest NYCC exclusive products and details regarding Fright Night, followed by a speech from McDaniels. Attendees were also provided with exclusive access to a signing for Peterson’s latest book (featuring a Pop! cover) and McDaniels Funko GOLD figure. Comic book writer and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Brooks also Pop!-ped by the booth to check out Frightmare on Fun Street!
