This is my first year going to San Diego Comic con so bear with me for these questions. I've registered for the four nights.

1) How or where did you get information on the panels and events for Thursday night?

2) Does San Diego publish a guide for each day? When and where do I get it?

Thanks.

program guides will be available even at the registration booth or info booths. there's plenty (i hope). just keep an eye on these guys, whether they be program guide or separate schedule.

or if you see a con-goer or attendee hold a guide, ask him/her politely to browse through those.

or if i were you, since you're a first timer, roam around the whole con. and get use to it. that way you can check out whatever that is good and exciting. trust me, not all of them are good, but at least that won't make sit thru a panel or programming that is boring. just relax and have fun.

and btw, stay away from the dealer/trade floor. you'll go broke. from buying stuff. LOL!!!
