(hayden-christensen.com) - Coverage has commenced in San Diego for the largest gathering of multimedia, arts and pop culture with the advent of Comic-Con International 2008.  This 4 day event brings a convergence of the biggest film studios, gaming vendors, anime, and more.  It also brings about the emergence of the socially inferior with huge collections of comic books living in their parent's basements.  The Comic-Con is a big weekend for comic geeks as they descend upon the vibrant and historic Gaslamp Quarter of downtown San Diego - not unlike the swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano for mating season.

While Hayden Christensen has attended this event in the past, we're not holding our breath this year.  Rest assured, there should be plenty of related promotions including Star Wars: Clone Wars and perhaps a glimpse at any upcoming projects and costumed fans.  The event officially starts Thu July 24th through Sun July 27th but there is a preview night on Wed July 23rd for those that pre-registered online for 4-day passes.
