    Say....

    What are the odds that the people involved have websites? (50/50?) Anyone heard any "official" news from either?

      A mate of mine was sitting nearby at the time, this is what he emailed through, plus photo:

      A short break and suddenly to my right across the ailse everyone is standing and they are calling for security. Not sure what's going on but figure someone has passed out. Security takes a long time which is surprising given if you were saving a seat they probably been there in seconds! As security came in the crowd who had been seated in the area were moved out and chairs pushed out of the way. We then got to see 2 men lying on the ground faced down tied up with the plastic handcuffs. Police and medics arrive as blood is clearly visible. Considerable time passes, eventually they are taken away and we still wait a further 30 mins to get back to the show. We later hear that one of the guys was stabbed near the eye with a protractor, only at Comic Con.

      The Avengers leave the stage and it is director Kevin Smith to deliver the final panel. He starts with pointing out what good are these superheroes when people are getting stabbed in the audience.
