HBO Max had an activation site to open New York Comic Con today. It was themed as DC Universe’s Doom Patrol.
As part of its promotion for Season 3 of Doom Patrol, which premiered on September 23, HBO Max staged a carnival-themed activation at the New York Comic Con from October 7 – 10.
Under the 18-foot-high big top tent, you can play four interactive carnival games. You can choose from Cliff’s Slot Car Speedway with custom slot cars featuring characters from Doom Patrol, Larry’s Negative Energy Maze, Vic Stone’s Cyborg Claw Machine, and Rita Farr’s Elasti-Mirrors.
In addition to the Doom Patrol t-shirts, a comic book, a stuffed giraffe, and Doom Patrol pins, there are a variety of Doom Patrol prizes available during the convention week at this activation. On the first day of New York Comic Con however, attendees were in for a treat.
