Luckily I bought the Saturday (one day pass) ticket because it's too expensive and I still have work during weekdays. Two of my favorite programming activities are: the exclusive screening of Gotham and meeting the most popular characters / artists from Marvel's Guardian of the Galaxy.

You can check the program highlights on this page. Warning: you'll be overwhelmed with its jampacked schedule so I'm glad that I plan my schedule few days before the event so that I won't be missing watching Gotham, LOL.

Here are some of the highlights of Saturday's event:
