As much as we re all feeling the strain of a year in pandemic-induced isolation, it just didn t feel like it was the right time to return to sunny San Diego for the world s greatest pop culture gathering. That s not meant to throw shade at Comic Con Experience (CCXP) in Brazil, by the way, which I hear is an
insane show with double the attendance of SDCC.
San Diego, though, is the OG of mega-cons. It s the place where movie franchises are born and buried, where iconic television series go to take a victory lap and soak up the adulation from its adoring fandom. It s the place where you can take pictures of as many Deadpool cosplayers as you could possibly want, as well as an equal number of Jokers. It s where all kinds of lasting memories can happen through sheer dumb luck and inspired timing. If legendary announcer Keith Jackson had ever moderated a panel at Hall H, he would have called SDCC the granddaddy of them all.
