11. The original Batman, Adam West, makes an appearance
OG Batman star Adam West has been making appearances at NYCC to promote his new animated feature Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders.
“It’s amazing when you say ‘be back,’ because it’s like it never really went away,” West told the Daily News of his iconic character. “Wherever I go, they love Batman, and, you know, consequently I learned to love Batman, because it gives people happy times. I guess I’m the funny Batman, which is OK to deliver the laughs.”
12. A new The Walking Dead scene
The cast and producers of TWD dropped a three-minute sneak peek from Season 7, and it’s pretty damn intense. It takes place right after Negan kills someone with his baseball bat, and Negan and Rick have a lengthy exchange. We still don’t know who he kills, but we do know it’s not Rick. Is it Maggie? Lauren Cohan has us thinking it is…
13. The Great Wall trailer No. 2
Official trailer No. 2 for The Great Wall was released, and it looks pretty good. You know, despite all the “whitewashing” complaints and backlash — something Damon isn’t too happy about.
