Overview
The mother of conventions and what is considered one of the most jam-packed of newgrounds-related events is San Diego's Comic Con. This year should be no different, considering the convention has been sold out since Spring. This event is a good chance to meet alot of the bigger names of the newgrounds universe as well as meet those who perhaps you didnt know of. It can best be described as surreal who's-who of ng personalities mixed with a ton costumed folks and high-budget hollywood studios and comic firms tugging for your attention. This mini-site is a drop-in-the-bucket collection of photos and vids.
Comic Con in photos
The following photos are in no particular order, it is merely a depot of photos from a wide range of users. It's probably the most effective way of capturing how jam-packed the convention environment is
The most notable thing about the Comic Con ordeal this year was the insanely long lines for panels. Particularly the Twilight panel, where some spent the whole day there.
