Comic-Con 2012: Promotional Bags for all that Swag

It's that time of year again! Comic-Con 2012 launched today in San Diego, California, and will run through Sunday, July 15, 2012. As the world's most popular comic book trade show, it's sure to be an epic event.

And what's the most important item at a convention of this size? Promotional bags, of course!

This year, Warner Bros. Entertainment supplied official bags that attendees can use to carry the freebies they pick up during the show.  According to CBS News, "The totes will have the Comic-Con official design on one side, and the other will spotlight different TV shows and movies."

"The bags are just so important for getting through Comic-Con," convention attendee Sony Chabolla told the San Diego Union-Tribute. "I use it to put free stuff in, but I also buy comics and figurines and I put them in there."

Chabolla may not realize it, but she explained why trade show giveaways are so important -- not only are they used at the event itself, but they live well beyond it. Did you snag one of these highly sought after Comic-Con 2012 bags?

They are huge bags, but I guess there are tonnes of swag given away at these shows. We don't use the term swag in UK, probably promos is the most slang term we would use. Would love to see the range of swag given away at these shows compared to a UK conference/ exhibition.

Please accept my apologies, Sony! I've corrected the error. The photo is simply to show off the bags Smile.
