For a reader like me that wants to see his characters develop, get past there defects and develop to their potential it becomes difficult to see this recycling in comics, but it happens. The movies are some what forced to it differently. If a character d...

San Diego Comic Con is the mecca of Comic Cons, unveiling new movie, games and other media related events. Actually to use the word comic when describing these cons is a bit of a misnomer, these events have more then just comics or comic related stuff but rather it should be referred to as a Universal Media Convention.
