The biggest comic convention, San Diego Comic-Con just got over and surely gave us a lot to talk about. The four day con witnessed a massive turnout of more than 100,000 attendees who got to witness some major trailer and teaser releases from the two major comic book giants, DC and Marvel.
Even though many major studies gave Comic-Con a miss, no fan can deny the fact that they were in for a treat this year as Disney owned Marvel and its rival, DC Comics, managed to lure the attendees with their TV shows and movies – teasers, trailers and A-list stars.
Among the absentees were 20th Century Fox, Legendary Pictures and Lionsgate, leaving Warner Bros and Marvel to dominate proceedings.
In case you have missed out on any trailer / teaser admist the chaos, not to worry as we have got you covered. Listing down all the major clip releases at San Diego Comic-Con.

Kong: Skull Island reimagines the origin of the mythic Kong in a compelling, original adventure from director Jordan Vogt-Roberts.

Marvel movies
Doctor Strange
If you thought the first teaser trailer was psychedelic, this one will make your mind’s blow away. The trailer is something Marvel fans would have never imagined off as it’s the most trippiest and visually grasping video where we observe the Sorcerer Supreme learning the ways of magic, and lots of ‘Inception’-like folding cities.
The movie is set to release on 4 November, 2016.
