L.A. Comic Con drew thousands of fans to the city's Convention Center, where a hundred exhibitors introduced what they had to offer visitors. Many people wore elaborate and original costumes. 

The conferences and autograph signings with many celebrities, writers, and content creators were well handled. 

L.A. Comic Con is accelerating, and we hope that the yearly event brings more movie studios and Hollywood premieres to reach the level of San Diego.
