Introduction
San Diego Comic-Con, founded in 1970, is the largest comic convention in the Western Hemisphere and the second largest globally. After more than fifty years of development, it has evolved from an initial small gathering of comic enthusiasts into one of the most influential annual events in global popular culture. For fans of comics, film, television, gaming, and popular culture in the United States and worldwide, San Diego Comic-Con holds a pivotal position, with its influence comparable to international top-tier exhibitions like E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo). The exhibition annually attracts hundreds of thousands of attendees and thousands of exhibitors, including top global film and television companies, comic publishers, game developers, toy manufacturers, and numerous independent artists and creators. The convention is not only a platform for new product launches, celebrity meet-and-greets, and fan interactions but also a barometer of popular culture trends, drawing widespread attention and coverage from global media every year. Here, the two-dimensional world intertwines with reality, offering all participants an immersive carnival experience. During the exhibition, attendees can participate in a series of rich and diverse activities, such as celebrity meet-and-greets with Hollywood stars and renowned comic artists, global premiere trailer releases, exclusive autograph sessions, specialized seminars and panel discussions delving into popular culture phenomena, hands-on experiences with the latest games, and highly anticipated award ceremonies. These activities collectively build a unique cultural exchange platform, allowing fans to experience the charm of their beloved works up close and share their passion with creators and peers. The exhibition not only showcases the latest cultural products but also promotes industry exchange and cooperation, actively contributing to the development of global popular culture.
