Comic-Con
2012:
Preview Night
Comic-Con has come around again, and once again we are here gathering stories, pictures and perhaps a few sore feet as we run around downtown San Diego. Tonight was the night that we limited our running to the Exhibition Floor, though several pilots for the fall season were being shown in Ballroom 20, including the CW's Arrow. Here are just some of the sights today -- over the next few days we'll no doubt be going back to capture more and then scour the floors for cosplay.

We waited patiently in the Sails Pavilion for hours --
as promised, the doors opened at 6, but none of us could seem to remember that..

Every year, Comic-Con has something rise out of the darkness and scare the crap out of me.
This year's is the most terrifying yet.
