San Diego Comic-Con 2023 had a different feel, with no Hollywood glitz in Hall H to distract from the rest of the convention, which was busy throughout the weekend. For more on the show this year, including the impact on exhibit hall sellers, see the column by Rob Salkowitz, "This Year in San Diego, We Got the Comic-Con We Deserved." Cosplay continued its multi-year decline, but Saturday still had plenty of great costumes.
Our photos tell the story of the Con; here’s Part 1, covering Thursday and Friday.
