Comic book retailer Brian Hibbs writes on his weblog about a just-completed trip to New York to see the new restaging/rethinking of Sweeney Todd.
Brian also writes about massive lines at the big New York Comic Convention that's going on this weekend. I'm hearing that the con is closing its doors to people who didn't secure advance tickets. That is, you can't just show up there tomorrow and buy a ticket to go in. I'm not sure how much of this is due to the Javits Center (which is pretty big) not being able to hold the crowds and how much is due to problems processing admissions. Probably both.
