Culture will host its first ever panel, “How Comic Books Took Over
Hollywood,” at San Diego Comic-Con this year featuring Marvel Comics’
Editor-in-Chief
Axel Alonso, Batman: The Animated Series writer/producer Paul Dini,
Star Wars: The Clone Wars voice actress Ashley Eckstein, and Fanboys director
Kyle Newman, marking the first time these industry legends
and trendsetters will be together on one stage. The panel, moderated
by BBC.com’s Deputy Culture Editor
Christian Blauvelt, will discuss the recent success of comics in
Hollywood, explore why it “gets” comic book storytelling now when for
decades it didn’t, and why the format has recently become so massively
popular in film and television.
