Comic-Con 2018: The Geek Power List
We’re living through a full-fledged nerd culture renaissance. From “Game of Thrones” to “Avengers: Infinity War,” the highest-grossing movies, top-rated television shows and best-selling novels all hail from the fantasy, horror or comic-book canon. Once dismissed as dorky, anything involving warrior princesses, cape-wearing heroes or boy wizards is now the epitome of cool. Comic-Con unspools in San Diego from July 19-22, and in honor of the annual fanboy and fangirl gathering, Variety takes a look at the most influential names in geek culture. These are the men and women powering the most popular properties in entertainment.
