NYCC 2023: Marvel's Spider-Man & Friends are the cover story to the New York Comic Con Program Guide

What's a comic convention without a proper comic convention guide? That's what we were thinking.

Due to popular demand, ReedPop is bringing back a printed program guide for New York Comic Con 2023 - and our friends at Marvel Comics are swinging in with a NYC-appropriate exclusive piece of art to go on the cover.

A new illustration by Mahmud Asrar and Marcio Menyz for the upcoming 'Gang War' event will be the NYCC 2023 Program Guide cover, featuring NYC mayor Luke Cage, She-Hulk, Spider-Woman, Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Elektra, and... yeah, you guessed it, the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker.

(Is that the Brooklyn Bridge in the background?)

Marvel will be pulling back the curtain on this crime-riddled comics crossover and many other stories at NYCC 2023 - stay tuned for the upcoming NYCC 2023 panel line-up reveal for some major Marvel moments.

And as a special treat, Mahmud Asrar and Marvel Comics will be on the NYCC 2023 showfloor - Artist Alley C-29! - so you can get your guide signed while you're there.

The NYCC 2023 Program Guide will include highlights of the four-day event, from panels to guests to special activations and events, along with some big stories from your friends here at Popverse.

(Yes, we'll sign it too!)

This limited edition NYCC 2023 Program Guide will be available while supplies last to those joining us October 12 - 15 for New York Comic Con 2023 in the Javits Center.
