Yoshiki Talks X Japan, MSG, and New York Comic Con

"New York Comic Con is sponsoring the concert as part of New York Super Week, a pop culture festival comprised of concerts, comedy shows, gaming events and food tastings throughout the five boroughs.

“The day before the show, October 10, I’ll be having a panel with Stan Lee. Stan Lee is the founder of Marvel Comics. He made me a super hero called Blood Red Dragon. We had a press conference Sunday at Comic Con a few years ago. This time – actually, I can’t talk about what we’re doing – we’ll be announcing something very exciting on October 10 at New York Comic Con.”

The collaboration between Stan Lee and Yoshiki may seem unlikely. The two met serendipitously at one of the parties Yoshiki hosts for his charity foundation, Yoshiki Foundation America, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

“He happened to sit next to me. I didn’t know who he was . . . I said, ‘What do you do?’ He said, ‘I create super heroes. What do you do?’ I said, ‘Well, I create music’ . . . We already released four comic books called Blood Red Dragon. I’m a super hero, and my name is actually Yoshiki in the comic book. I have an interesting power. I wish I could have that power.”"
