Conférence sur les arts de la bande dessinée # 9: La bande dessinée et la santé: sauver des vies et prévenir les maladies
Une vague actuelle de bandes dessinées appliquées aux professions de la santé attire l'attention des spécialistes de la bande dessinée, des revues médicales, des défenseurs de la santé publique et des prestataires de soins de santé.

Ce comité réunit des professionnels de la santé et des dessinateurs de bandes dessinées qui créent activement des bandes dessinées afin d’éduquer les patients et le public dans les domaines du diabète, de l’asthme, de la préparation aux situations d’urgence, de la grippe, du VIH / sida et plus encore.

La session se terminera par une discussion ouverte et interactive avec les participants afin d’envisager de nouvelles orientations et possibilités de collaboration en matière de bandes dessinées sur les soins de santé pour les praticiens et les universitaires.

La montée des fangirls: les femmes dans la culture geek récente
En 2010, neuf femmes se sont rassemblées sur la scène devant une foule nombreuse et engagée à Comic-Con International pour dissiper le mythe selon lequel «les filles geek, comme les licornes, n'existent pas». Les six années suivantes ont vu une explosion de la représentation féminine dans espaces geek. Les enquêtes portant sur le nombre de participants aux événements organisés par les fans, ainsi que sur les données concernant les femmes joueurs et les lecteurs de bandes dessinées, suggèrent une parité des sexes dans la culture geek. Les titres qui sortent du Comic-Con lui-même proclament que «les femmes dominent totalement» l'événement et que nous assistons à la montée des fangirls. Mais jusqu'où les femmes de la culture geek ont-elles vraiment évolué depuis ce panel historique «Geek Girls Exist»? Andrea Letamendi (Association des héros de la culture pop), Jamie Broadax (Nerds des filles noires), Kristin Rielly (Réseau Geek Girls), Suzanne Scott (UT-Austin), Sam Maggs (Bioware, Le guide de la galaxie de Fangirl), Marie Poole (Lone Shark Jeux) et la modératrice Jennifer K.

Johnathan Flowers (Université du Sud de l'Illinois à Carbondale) utilise les travaux de Sara Ahmed pour analyser le «non-respect» de Bitch Planet en tant qu'expérience phénoménologique d'être contre l'ordre établi, en utilisant des exemples tirés de la bande dessinée et du mouvement culturel plus large pour articuler le non-respect un acte de résistance.

Production Designers of the Art Directors Guild Who Work in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy Genre
The production designer reads 100 pages of nothing-but-words-on-paper and then must literally dream up the most perfect of all possible worlds in which the tale should take place. Though the story may be set in some mythic past, the here and now, or some nearly unimaginable future, it’s always human emotion rendered in color and composition. And following that, the designer must gather and organize an army of artists who, over months or years, in plaster or in pixels, will somehow render that design for the big screen. Panelists are Dave Blass (Preacher), James Chinlund (War for the Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, The Avengers), Sean Haworth (Deadpool), and Patrick Tatopoulos (Die Hard 4, Dark City, I, Robot). John Muto (Home Alone, Species) moderates.

Trek Talks: Star Trek & NASA Boldly Go
Star Trek has influenced many of us to fall in love with the infinite possibilities of space exploration. The various television series and films have also made an indelible impact on NASA. NASA scientists, engineers and astronauts often cite Star Trek as inspiring them to pursue careers in their fields. (Nichelle Nichols even helped NASA recruit astronauts in the 1980s.) Today, NASA is turning science fiction into reality. Humans now live and work in space full time on the International Space Station. SNASA continues its goal of sending humans to Mars in the 2030s. How does NASA’s vision of the future mimic the world of Star Trek and where does it differ? What technologies in the Star Trek world have paved the way for real technologies being developed by NASA? This moderated discussion in collaboration with CBS will be accompanied by the latest visual and graphics of some of NASA’s newest and most exciting missions. Robert Picardo, who portrayed The Doctor on Star Trek: Voyager, moderates a panel that includes Astronaut Kjell Lindgren (NASA Johnson Space Center), Amber Staughn (astrophysicist, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center), Bobak Ferdowsi (flight systems engineer, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory), and Jay Falker (early stage portfolio executive, Space Technology Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters).

Frequency Pilot Screening and Q&A
Based on the New Line feature film, Frequency is the story of a father and daughter who are supernaturally reunited two decades after his suspicious and untimely death. New York detective Raimy Sullivan was only 7 when her father, Frank Sullivan, an undercover cop, abandoned his family in pursuit of a case that led not only to his family’s breakup but his eventual death undercover. Always believing her dad died in disgrace as a corrupt cop, Raimy set forth to surpass him in law enforcement, rising through the ranks to detective. But everything she knows changes when somehow Raimy and Frank connect-across two decades-over Frank’s vintage ham radio in the garage. Where once Frank was lost in the shadows of his undercover work in 1996, he has now miraculously been found by his now-grown daughter in 2016. As they forge a new relationship while working together in two time periods to close an unsolved serial murder investigation, their emotional connection transcends time to not only repair the broken bonds of their family but also defy fate and change the course of destiny.Frequency makes its Comic-Con debut with a screening of the complete pilot episode, followed by a panel with series stars Peyton List (The Tomorrow People, The Flash), Riley Smith (Nashville, The Messengers), and Mekhi Phifer (Torchwood, ER), along with executive producers Jeremy Carver (Supernatural, U.S. version of Being Human) and Jennifer Gwartz (Lethal Weapon, Veronica Mars).

Time After Time Pilot Screening and Q&A
Using the 1979 novel and movie as a launching point, Time After Time chronicles the epic adventures of a young H.G. Wells. At the age of 28, the 19th-century scholar has yet to publish any of his landmark science fiction novels, but his idealistic thinking and radical ideas have led him to actually create a time machine. When his longtime friend-the charismatic (and secretly psychopathic) Dr. John Stevenson, a.k.a. Jack the Ripper, finds himself cornered by the authorities at Wells’s London home, he escapes to present-day New York City using the time machine. Naturally, Wells follows, but instead of the utopian society he imagined would be in the future, he finds a world more aligned to Stevenson’s temperament. Fortunately, Wells meets up with Jane Walker, an assistant curator at a museum staging an H. G. Wells exhibition. As Wells and Jane come together, they will not only play a dangerous endgame with Stevenson, but also find themselves involved with the incredible characters and scenarios that inspired Wells’ War of the Worlds, The Invisible Man, The Island of Dr. Moreau, and more. See a screening of the complete pilot episode, followed by a panel with executive producers Kevin Williamson (The Vampire Diaries, Dawson’s Creek, The Following, Scream movies) and Marcos Siega (Blindspot, The Following, The Vampire Diaries, Dexter, Cold Case, Veronica Mars) and series stars Freddie Stroma (Harry Potter films, Pitch Perfect, Game of Thrones, 13 Hours, UnREAL) and Genesis Rodriguez (Identity Thief, Man on a Ledge, Entourage, Big Hero 6).

Featuring Rik Offenberger (First Comics News), Francis Szyskowski (The Massacre Twins), Scott Lost (The 2nd Shift), Eburonson (The 2nd Shift), Michael Kingston (Headlocked), Jonathan Bowles (WrassleRoos), and Flobo Boyce (Silver Streek).

Comic-Con International Masquerade
The Ballroom 20 stage becomes a showplace for a fun competition of creativity, with impressive re-created and original costumes crafted by our talented attendees, presented in front of an audience of thousands. Not a dance or party, but a talent show on a stage, with trophies, cash prizes and other awards for the top entries. Doors open for audience seating at 8:00, but the line for choice seating will begin hours earlier. Since the ballroom can fill up, tickets are required for seating inside and will be given out free at noon to those lined up near the ballroom. Any tickets that remain will be given out at the Masquerade Desk after 3:00. The Master and Mistress of Ceremonies will again be writer/artists Phil Foglio and Kaja Foglio of Studio Foglio/Girl Genius, and there will be special entertainment during the Judging Intermission. Ballroom 20. Overflow seating available in the Sails Pavilion, 5AB, and 6A (tickets not required for those rooms).

Hall H and Ballroom 20 Saturday Playback Free Play
Didn’t get into Hall H or Ballroom 20 today? We feel your pain! On hand to kick off the panel will be the assistant to the director of programming for Comic-Con, Tommy Goldbach, in this block that rebroadcasts some of the day’s popular panels from those two giant rooms. Best of all, those in attendance will get to vote in a show of applause on what they want to see. It’s democracy at its finest, and it’s a second or maybe even a third chance to see these panels. (Please note: these playbacks will include only the panel discussions. None of the film clips or footage shown at the live events will be shown here.)
