As you've probably noticed, we had quite the adventure in New York last week during the 2009 Comic Con. Now that our coverage is complete we wanted to give everyone a recap just in case you missed anything.

Champions Online: Welcome to Monster Island - We met with Champions Online Design Director Bill Roper to get the inside scoop on Champions Online. We weren't exactly thrilled with what we saw, but there is plenty of room for improvement.

Star Trek Online: Live Long and Prosper - Even though we've already talked with Executive Producer Craig Zinkievich about Star Trek Online, we covered new ground at NYCC. We still haven't played the game, but from what we've seen, we're excited.

Jumpgate Evolution: Jumpgate Innovation - It's been a long time since we've seen an MMO with such a fresh, unexplored concept. Many will argue JGE offers nothing new, but we think differently.

DC Universe Online: Prepare to Fight - DCUO continues to be the most impressive game at conventions. Everytime we see the game we fall a little more in love. With the addition of legendary comic writer Marv Wolfman, can this game fail?

Star Wars: The Old Republic: Threat of Peace - Most of you already know about the upcoming Star Wars MMO being developed by BioWare. What you might not know about the story may surprise you. We sit down with Rob Chestney to talk about the new SW:TOR comic titled Threat of Peace.

Warhammer Online: Choppa, Slayer Prepare for War - Although Warhammer Online launched and arguably disappointed a majority of the community with the title's lack of enjoyable duration, the team has been expanding the game and recently announced a gigantic game update. We caught up with Adam Gershowitz to see what's what with Warhammer.

DC Universe Online: Interview with Marv Wolfman - As was announced earlier last week, Marv Wolfman, famed comic book legend, has joined the DCUO team. We surrounded him and forced him to answer our questions. Lucky for us he didn't summon his Crisis on Infinite Earth collective.

Magic: The Gathering Has Many Online Options - We had a chance to stop by the Wizards of the Coast booth while we were in between meetings. While there, we were shown two different online Magic products, each of which are worth noting.

DC Universe Online: Panel Summary - Thought we were done with our DCUO coverage? Think again! Togikagi took notes during the panel with Jim Lee, Geoff Johns, Marv Wolfman and other members of the DCUO team.

Pictures from the Comic Con - We couldn't stop taking photos at the convention because the center was overflowing with so many costumes and events. Check out our photo gallery to see all sorts of cosplay outfits.
