The Comic Con Brawl
Cody then appeared through the crowd and came face-to-face with the world champ Jericho on the stage. The brawl broke down after this and apparently it was Jericho who took the first shot. The brawl continued for a while until the security team brought things under control. You can check the clips below.
Frank was appearing at a comic con event in Mexico, an event that Jean Claude Van Damme was also appearing at. The two weren't best of friends before, and as Frank details what happened in their crazy altercation, the two won't be hanging out anytime soon.
This is KPBS Midday Edition. Maureen Cavanaugh. Comic con kicks off its 47th year in one week. Our arts reporter speaks with Comic con's chief communications and strategy officer, David Glanzer, about what is new this year. I think one of the biggest things people are concerned about this year, based on what I've seen and social media is the new badges. This was the first year you could get badges mailed to you. There is a notion of tapping in and tapping out. Tell me what these new badges are and how this will change things at Comic-Con? The badges are new this year. They implemented in RFID technology. This will allow us an ability to prevent hotspots. If everyone is entering through one door, we will know that we need to make sure people go to other doors to get into the facility. We experimented and tried this at our sister show NLA earlier this year. It worked very well. Anything new is always scary. Once people get the hang of it is a simple tap in and tap out. Very quick. That way we have a better idea of how many people are in an area at any given time. This year you using the San Diego library again. I think you use them for some panels before. Talk about some of the programming there. there is a special emphasis on educators and librarians. I think what people don't realize about Comic-Con is we are and educational organization. People see the booths on the floor and people in costumes. It is a great deal of fun but there's also a great deal of education. One thing we're doing this year at the library is specific panels and workshops and programs on education. Librarians utilizing comics as tools for reading. Literacy and things of that nature. Any of those events are open to the general public even if you do not have a badge. If you go to our website you will see more information on that. It is an important aspect of what we do and we are excited to bring that to the library. One thing new this year is the Comic-Con HQ. This will allow people who don't have badges an opportunity to get a peek inside Comic-Con. Tell me about what the goal is for Comic-Con HQ and how this is a partnership with Comic-Con. One of the great things about Comic-Con is we are approached often by a variety of different organizations hoping to do different things. We don't always have the ability to say yes. Sometimes it is not a good fit. A few years ago we were approached by Lionsgate who want to see if they could expand upon the Comic-Con excitement and fun over the course of the entire year. Comic-Con HQ was born. We are hoping to bring highlights of things that happen after or during the show to an audience during and after the show. Hopefully they will have interviews with guests. They will have original programming. They will be running around, shooting different aspects inside the convention center and outside. It is something I am looking forward to. I don't really have the luxury of seeing a lot during the show. I will certainly be tuning in to see the things I missed. It seems like Comic-Con has gotten so big, not just in terms of the convention but everything that goes on outside of the convention. And it seems like this will be an opportunity even if you have a badge and are attending to get glimpses of things you may be can't catch up with on the floor or in panels. Right. Someone did a survey not too long ago that said we have over 2000 hours or at least 2000 events of programming over the course of the days. There really is no way for everyone to see all of it. Comic-Con HQ is a new venture. As we continue to grow we will be able to do more. Our hope is you will be able to see stuff that you did not know was happening or weren't able to get to. Again, there is so much happening over the course of the Comic-Con weekend you are bound to miss something. Hopefully Comic-Con HQ can Kelli Wynn. There are a lot of things going on outside the convention center. Some of these are sanctioned in some of these are not. What are some of the events that Comic-Con is partnering with outside of the convention itself? The truth is there are non-sanctioned events. Those are events that do not work with us or deal with us or they have their own rules. We are happy when people have sanctioned events. Those are typically events that require a badge. The reason being is it helps alleviate crowds inside. They follow certain rules. They know who we are, what we are and who our fans are. It is catered tore them. This something new, entertainment weekly is doing something called con X, a four-day event. That will be a recharge and regenerate area. I think they will have music and areas to sit around. I also think maybe some water and charging stations. Fun stuff for people to hang out and enjoy the outside. This does not relate specifically to the convention itself but recently there was a press release from the Hall of champions regarding a potential Comic-Con Museum. What is the status of that? Is it something that is in discussion? It is. We have long thought about what our legacy will be with Comic-Con. We have been here forever it seems. This is our 47th year. We have discussed different ways to secure the legacy and make sure that we have something for people who come in the future in addition to the convention. An idea was floating around about a museum. The Hall of champions heard about that and said, if we were interested in discussing with them, he will love to chat with us. It is in the very preliminary stages. They are a great group of people. We are excited about chatting with them of course everything is focusing on Comic-Con. There has not been much discussion. There is not much to report right now and that is because we have been so busy. As someone who was a fan of many things, Star Wars, I can look around your office and I can see Star Wars and Star Trek, is there anything in particular that you are looking forward to even if you may be cannot find the time for it? Your rights. I love film. I would love to be able to attend the Comic-Con independent film Festival. At Comic-Con, that is the title sponsor and other sponsors for prizes. I'm excited about that. Comic-Con is such a great venue for creative types. We see that in art. We see that in writing. We see that in costume building. And we see that in film too. That is something very exciting to me. I hope I can pop my head in there. there are so many creative aspects to the show that honestly, popping into any room is -- I know it sounds cheesy but it is a joy. Lucasfilm set the bar high by having that amazing Star Wars event outside the convention center. This film -- this year, Star Trek will hold a preview screening -- what will that be like? We are excited. It will be the world premiere of the Star Trek Beyond. That is something we're very excited about. It will be in association with the San Diego Symphony. It will be fun. An opportunity for Comic-Con attendees to attend a world premiere. And for the Star Trek franchise -- for any fan it is like geek heaven. I do not know if I will be able to attend but I'm very excited about it. I hope you get some time to enjoy the convention. Thank you very much. Me to. -- Too. Comic-Con international on July 21 through the 24th at the scene Dayton Convention Center with a preview night on July 20.
Comic-Con now has almost 500,000 square feet of exhibit space for dealers, draws more than 130,000 attendees and offers hundreds of hours of programming ranging from how to break into comics to the cult of adult coloring books.
Furthering their mission statement to create awareness of and appreciation for comics and related popular art forms, Comic-Con is hosting four days of panels geared toward educators and librarians at the San Diego Central Library. A Comic-Con badge is not required to get in if you register for the panels.
The UK comics community is thriving, but small. So inappropriate behaviour or practice by anyone within that community quickly becomes known no matter what personal spin on it you send out on social media.
Steve: Get stuck in! Most of the creators actively involved in the UK comics community are very approachable and happy to give tips and share advice. Start small, and be realistic in your expectations, but start. And never, ever, underestimate the value of a professional letterer.
Sheldon and Leonard are preparing for their trip to the Bakersfield Comic-con and plan on wearing their Star Trek: The Next Generation costumes. Penny gives Leonard some make-up sponges and she mentions that he has more and better makeup than she does. When she attempts to borrow some, Leonard tells her that he loves her, but some things just aren't meant to be shared. Sheldon agrees because he once borrowed his sister's makeup and got a terrible case of pink eye, but the up side was that he was dressing as a zombie and the added effect helped him win second place. Penny remarks that they just went to the San Diego Comic-Con, and Leonard replies that the Bakersfield one is smaller and more about the comic books, which was what the San Diego one was like before it "went all Hollywood." He then takes a photo of him kissing Penny on the cheek while she holds the day's newspaper, so that he can show it to others when they don't believe that he has a hot girlfriend. 350c69d7ab
