FAN GIRL

SAN DIEGO: The sun has set on yet another Comic Con International, aka San Diego Comic Con. This celebration of pop culture and the arts has been called Mecca for geeks. The first convention was held in 1970.

Since then, attendance to the multi-day show has grown from 300 individuals to well over 135,000 in recent years. This isn't counting those without badges who line up for activations outside the convention center.
