Comic-Con
2014:
Thursday
It's a week later. That's how busy Comic-Con was. Let's not call it crazy, because others do that. But there was much going on, maybe more than ever before, and no way for one person to get to all of it. Perhaps Comic-Con has become a metaphor for life itself.
Still, there is evidence that things may be getting too unwieldy. Comic-Con instituted some new policies for Hall H, but the crowds may be growing and changing faster than the administration can keep up. We shall ruminate, but first... let's look back.
