The 2018 San Diego Comic Con International was held this past weekend, with several movie and television studios making their big presentations at the annual fan event. The convention is held each year at the San Diego Convention Center, with more than 100,000+ attendees participating in activities like panels, exhibit hall shopping and cosplay.


The main attraction at this year's convention was Warner Bros' big Saturday presentation, with Marvel Studios skipping out on having a panel presence. Among WB's movie presentations were Aquaman and the Fantastic Beasts sequel, as well as appearances by the cast of the upcoming Wonder Woman and Lego Movie films.


Several other big name guests attended the convention as well, including Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Sterling K. Brown, Nicole Kidman, Tom Hardy, the cast of the Walking Dead, and a Breaking Bad reunion which included Brian Cranston, Aaron Paul, and the remaining principle cast. Kevin Smith was also awarded the Inkpot Award by SDCC's Eddie Ibrahim.


HBO also chose to sit out the convention this year, skipping their usual offering of a Game of Thrones panel, given the fact that the show does not return until 2019. But several other television shows made their first appearance in the big Hall H, including Star Trek Discovery, Riverdale and Legion.
