Despite the large Hollywood influence, Comic-Con does still include real comic books and graphic art at the show. One of the biggest events during the convention for fans, artists and comic insiders is the Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards, an annual awards highlighting the year's best publications.

Cutie Olivia Munn stepped out at Comic-Con with a big smile and a sweet little get-up. She shimmered in a black sequined mini, baring some leg and a little cold shoulder via her white cutout top. For accessories, she kept it simple via nude platform pumps and a cool gold and black braided bracelet. Black and white, and Fab all over. Shop This Look Read more
Now that all the hubbub has subsided and I'm nestled back up in San Francisco, I'm processing all the exciting, strange, and just . . . interesting stuff I saw and heard at Comic-Con in San Diego.

The award for rowdiest panel that I saw at Comic-Con went to the cast of Chuck. After teetering on the edge of cancellation, Josh Schwartz and his band of merry geeks/spies couldn't have been jollier about shooting the breeze with fans — and with each other.

One of the most hotly anticipated panels at Comic-Con was the one for Iron Man 2, which included director Jon Favreau, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell — and some footage from the upcoming sequel. First, however, Favreau rolled out a cheeky fake teaser trailer, complete with cheesy graphics and little to no new footage from the movie. The audience cheered Read more

The panel started off on an exciting note when Alan Ball announced that the official True Blood drink (it'll be "blood orange" soda) was a go, and the fun continued from there. It was interesting to see the scariness of the show combined with the cast's funny anecdotes about fang malfunctions, Read more
The final Comic-Con Lost panel ever was filled with such warmth and humor and mutual appreciation (between fans and executive producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof) I didn't want it to end. Though there was of course no new footage of the next season, there were plenty of surprises for us fans. Some of these fans were even visited by Cuse and Lindelof last night as they camped out for early Read more
