Comic-Con Sold Out

Hopefully you were n’t plan to make any last - min plans for next hebdomad ’s San Diego Comic - Con , because for the first prison term in the show ’s story , all four twenty-four hour period of the show are sell out before the con even begin . You may think that the organizers would be happy about that , but as Comic - Con International ’s Director of Marketing and Public Relations David Glanzer explains , nothing could be further from the truth .

I know this goes against most clientele planning , but we have never looked at this as being a plus . The fact is there are going to be masses who want to see the show who wo n’t be capable to and that is a state of affairs , I ’m trusted , no one wants .

The sell - out ( only the 2d sell - out for the show ; the first was last year , and occur during the hustle itself from the great unwashed buy ticket at the door ) is being assign to increase pop - cultural awareness of comic and SF , according to Glanzer :

It ’s a little unmanageable to call up , or imagine what comics and even science fiction and plastic film appreciation were like in 1972 . Few people then pull in that comic books were a unique American artistry form . In regard to motion picture , it was n’t always treated as an art form , and while Congress has found a moving picture register , it ’s amazing that the registry was only created a picayune of 10 years ago .

I think there is a majuscule deal to see and larn at Comic - Con and I recollect the more people we can expose to this , the good .
