How often is comic con held?

San Diego is kind of "the original", but there are many others (and SDCC has arguably gotten "too big" and is not really about comics per se anymore). There's one in New York, for example, and there's the Emerald City one in Seattle, and the Small Press Expo in or near Bethesda, MD.

What is Comic-Con and what do people do at it?

It the worlds largest comic book CONvention - hence the name. Attendees do a variety of things including meeting artists and celebrities, talking to industry representatives and people-watching as there are alot of eclectic and interesting 'characters' attending. MMMMMOOOOOOMMMMMMMAAAAAAAYYYYYYY111111117777777 Comic-Con is yeah, basically the largest comic book convention. Well, the people who buy tickets for it can meet the celebrities who played a role in the movie Comic-Con would be hosting. Unfortunately, not all of the characters attend to Comic-Con, mostly just the main characters. Comic-Con usually appears before a popular movie is released. This is so Comic-Con can release unseen footage of the film sometimes as a bonus. The characters sit along a big table and they answer questions from the fans and just talk about the movie. It can get really fun and silly at times. :D This years Comic-Con, that is actually going to be done today, July 23, 2009 at 2:15-3:15, will be hosting New Moon!!
