Autographs

NYCC is using an online lottery to distribute tickets to many of the post-panel TV/movie/anime panels. (These are the free signings sponsored by the studios which are normally wristbanded and held in the autograph area.) The lottery closes on 9/26 A second wave of autographs opened up and ends on 10/1 so enter here soon for your chance to win! I’ve updated the list below to indicate which signings are through the lottery. Winners will get more specifics on time and place.

[UPDATE] All winners for the autograph lotteries have been notified. Post-panel signings for BookCon @ NYCC will require a wristband which will be distributed to around the first 150 in line for the corresponding panel.
