New York Comic Con ‘Best of Show’ Winners: Archer, Rick and Morty, Titmouse Inc, South Park, and MAD
Best Comic or Print Series- MAD
In a field that is becoming ever so crowded, the legends smoke their cigars and toast as this year’s victors.
Best Returning Animated Series- Archer
The opening sequence of Archer started just like any other…then a bomb goes off. ISIS gets shut down and we have a whole season to figure out what comes next.
Best New Animated Series- Rick and Morty
Rick and Morty premiers December on Adult Swim and is threatening to be the best new series. Those still feeling the hurt from Futurama’s crash landing will come to terms with this new series.
Best Animated Short “‘Tallica Parking Lot”
Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo worked on this short film with the great Titmouse studios. Characters from South Park, Beavis & Butthead, Metalocaypse, and an animated rendition of Lemmy all make cameos. The short will be bundled in the Through the Never DVD/Blu-ray release.
Best Booth- ‘South Park: The Stick of Truth’
I mean come on! The friggin’ booth looked like downtown South Park, featured a preview of the upcoming game, AND was closed off from cameras! How could you NOT give the award?
