Abstract

The article focuses on the 2009 Comic-Con convention in San Diego, California. The convention reportedly grown from a small gathering of science-fiction fans to film and video game producers, whose industries are increasingly marketing superhero characters and their stories. Storyboard artist Bobby Rubio of Walt Disney's Pixar animation unit has developed his own lines of independent comic books, and at the convention, he will encourage producers to turn these books into movies. Some of the stories to be released at Comic-Con are cited.
