New York Comic Con 2014: BOOM! Studios Participates in ReedPop Partnership with Chevrolet and Uber to Give Fans Free Rides

BOOM! Studios is participating in a special promotion during New York Super Week (NYSW), the week leading up to the start of New York Comic Con (Oct. 9-12) at the Javits Center in New York City. ReedPOP announced a partnership with Chevrolet and Uber that will put fans in the driver’s seat of convenience at this year’s events. As part of the partnership, Chevrolet will custom wrap nine different car models with some of the most iconic characters from comics, video games, and literature—including several from BOOM! Studios titles—that fans can Uber to events all across the city. The partnership kicked off October 3 and runs through October 7.

Comic Con fans will also have a chance to win exclusive access to great prizes and collectibles thanks to the Chevrolet and Uber partnership. For instance, fans who ride in the Chevrolet Cruze may win BOOM! Studios exclusive comics and graphic novels. Those who ride in the New York Super Week Chevrolet Tahoe will be eligible to receive New York Comic Con and New York Super Week t-shirts, tickets to New York Super Week events, and much more.

Fans will also be eligible to win a trip to NYCC 2015 with VIP Tickets and a Chevy Car Exclusives Prize Pack through the “Chevrolet Gives You the Keys to NYCC” contest. Starting on October 3, fans are encouraged to tweet creative photos of one of the cars, using the hashtag #ChevyNYCC. Following the completion of New York Comic Con on October 13, NYCC and Chevrolet will pick the 10 best photos as finalists.
