Hey folks, JoBlo here! I just wanted to let you know that we'll be doing some different things with our COMIC CON coverage this year. Sure, we're still gonna get some star interviews and shit, but not as much as in previous years. This year, we're gonna try and cover the CON itself as much as the panels, the movies and all that fun stuff. We're gonna try and do more "fan on the street" interviews with people who are actually at the Con, more picture galleries, more top lists and as you might have noticed already, LIVE COVERAGE of the panels, in which you can also participate.

In fact, the good thing about the LIVE COVERAGE of the panels is that you actually feel like you're sitting there alongside the other 6,500 crazy fans (except you can't see anything, of course), as our guys describe it all for you, and upload pictures of the panels as fast as they can. Even if you miss the actual LIVE COVERAGE, you can go back at anytime and read the blogging, so hopefully this takes you a little closer into the experience that is the COMIC CON. Here's a wrap-up of today's action according to JoBlo.com...

PICTURE OF THE DAY

VIDEOS OF THE DAY

Oh, Jim Law and Ammon Gilbert will also be attempting to put together a new PODCAST every single night of the Con (you can listen to the first one HERE), and they'll hopefully try and get you guys/girls as close to the crazy-ass parties in San Diego as well.

And don't forget to FOLLOW US ON TWITTER because the boys will be tweeting their asses off as well, so we're covering this from all angles, people (PS: We center our lives around this week, man...give us a break). Hope you enjoy!

Oh-yea...
AWESOME STUFF GUYS/GALS. This is a great experience. I've been reading JoBlo.com for 9 years now, and this is always my favorite time of the year. I've never actually visited Comic-con, but thanks to you guys I feel like I'm there every year!

Yeah, it was part of a Disney panel we...couldn't get into because of the line-up! :( Believe it or not, even though we're "press", we still gotta wait in line and shit.

Anyway, there was some talk about TRON which we reported in another story, and Burton came out for ALICE IN WONDERLAND, and I believe they presented the trailer. Mike write a little about all that tomorrow, as he g...
