The San Diego Comic-Con International began on July 20 at the San Diego Convention Center. Passes for the Preview Night of this year’s edition of the 4-Day event were sold out during the 2010 convention. 4-Day Passes without Preview and daily passes were sold out in record time on Feb 6, less than 8 hours after going on sale.

San Diego Comic-Con International, commonly known as Comic-Con or the San Diego Comic-Con, was founded as the Golden State Comic Book Convention and later the San Diego Comic Book Convention in 1970 by Shel Dorf and a group of San Diegans. It is traditionally a four-day event, held during the summer in San Diego, California, United States, at the San Diego Convention. A three-hour preview night is open to professionals, exhibitors, and some guests.
Below are some pictures of the attendees and their fancy costumes on the preview night as well as on the day event. Also see Pictures from San Diego Comic-Con 2010
