San Diego Comic Con, like the moon walk, turns 50 this year. And, wow, things have changed. “More than 130,000 people are expected to attend this year; they’re here for comics, yes, but also for their favorite movies, TV shows, books and toys. It’s a far cry from the 300 people who gathered in the basement of San Diego’s U.S. Grant Hotel in the summer of 1970, to see Kirby and the equally legendary sci-fi author Ray Bradbury.” – NPR
