It’s almost time. Starting at 12:00PM Eastern on Wednesday, July 9 (that's today, as I write this!), Popverse's NYCC Superfans will be able to purchase tickets to celebrity photo ops and autographs at New York Comic Con 2025, two full days before they go on sale to the general public — and we’re going to tell you how.

If you’re a Popverse regular (and we hope that you are!), you already know what it means to be a NYCC Superfan — membership in our Superfan program gives benefits like:

Guaranteed first access to NYCC tickets each year
Superfan variant limited edition gift
Premium access to purchase photo ops, autographs, and exclusive merch from New York Comic Con
Access to Popverse's library of previous panels from NYCC, C2E2, ECCC, and more
Access to Popverse's members-only and members-first articles including the weekly columns Marvel Matters, For Your Consideration, and Popverse Jump, and the monthly Popversations
