	Gamasutra - Event Wrap-Up - "Comic-Con International 2005, San Diego"
		This year's Comic-Con International, held at the San Diego Conference Center from July 14th to 17th, is by far the largest worldwide event for the comic book industry.
		Establishing a series of comic books and merchandise helped solidify their video game deal with Acclaim, though the publisher unfortunately filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy just two weeks before the title's scheduled release.
		But in recent years, with comic characters licensed into other media (and, indeed, characters from other media feeding back into comics), it's increasingly relevant for the video game industry.

	San Diego Comic Con International
		is billed as the "largest convention devoted to the popular arts" in the United States, and these arts include comics, science fiction, and animation--both foreign and domestic.
		Dark Horse Comics, one of the leading publishers of translated manga in the U.S., was also there, but they did not seem to be promoting any of their manga titles.
		OVA's to cross-promote the comic and CPM's video, but that was all I was able to find that gave any hint that Dark Horse even published manga.

	Disembodied Brain sci-fi weblog Looking ahead to San Diego Comic-Con International 2005
		True comic fans don't need any special enticement to come to the con with its acres of comic vendors, massive displays by the likes of Marvel, DC and Dark Horse and the opportunity to meet with top-notch drawers and inkers, but Comic-Con always offers more.
		This year, that will include a celebration of the life of comics icon Will Eisner and the usual assortment of Comics Arts Conference panel discussions – including one on the new trend of comics blogging.
		Afraid not, but I'd have to believe any sneak peaks will be of films promoed at the con, since that way they can latch onto buzz-creating fans; the Hollywood folks get savvier every year.

	Real Life - The Online Comic ©1999-2005 Greg Dean
		I've noticed that the con is less of a Comic Convention as it is a Multimedia Convention.
		Cool Stuff at the Con : There were a lot of cool booths and displays and whatnot, but one of the biggest and coolest IMHO was the one for "The Time Machine", a remake of the classic film of the 60's(?).
		But anyway, the con this year r00ld, meeting all the Keenspotters and other cartoonists r00ld, and next year is gonna r00l even more, since we plan on having a bigger and better-placed booth.

	UGO Screenwriter's Voice - Feature Article -- Comic-Con International 2003
		This was my first year at Comic-Con International in San Diego, but I'd heard the stories.
		Film adaptations of comics being the topic du jour this year, numerous panels deconstructed the art of adaptation, what makes a comic ripe for the big screen, and the pitfalls that line the process along the way.
		I hit town Wednesday morning, the day before the Con officially opened, but there was already something in the air, the distant smell of Mylar comic bags and old paper.

	Disembodied Brain sci-fi weblog Comic-Con International 2003, July 17-20
		Just as The Incredible Hulk's transformation into "Hulk" continued to blur the lines between comic books and movies, the focus of Comic-Con International further broadens this year from comic books, anime and related collectibles into science fiction, fantasy, gaming and independent films.
		In addition to the vast convention hall floor of booths offering comics, graphic novels, anime, TV merchandise, collectible action figures, art, toys, costumes, and more, this year's Comic-Con will offer panel discussions, autograph signings, industry seminars, previews of upcoming movies, an independent festival and the awards ceremony for the annual Star Wars Fan Film Awards.
		With the Hollywood movie industry becoming increasingly reliant on comic book characters and story lines – think of last year's "Spiderman," this year's "Daredevil," "X-2: X-Men United" and "Hulk" – Comic-Con also has become a place to make a big splash for genre films.

	Comic-Con International Panels, 2002
		Every year, at the Comic-Con International, I get to moderate a load of panels that are fun and/or educational, and everyone who shows up for them has a very good time, myself included.
		The only problem is all the folks who go to the con and get so swept up in the main exhibit hall that they forget about the programming upstairs and later regret it.
		This special installment will be devoted wholly to comics edited by JULIUS "Living Legend" SCHWARTZ, who will tell us what little he remembers about these silly books.
