For four days out of the year, the San Diego Convention Center transforms into a gathering place for a staggering number of creatives. Representatives from all manner of media - films, television, video games, and yes, even comics - come to discuss their latest works.

We took advantage of the opportunity, lining up conversations with prominent artists, writers, advocates and even one sitting congressman and civil rights legend.

For those who lost track in amongst the deluge of pop culture news, homemade costumes and geeky pomp and circumstance, here's a collection of the slew of interviews TechTimes and T-Lounge conducted on-site at this year's Comic Con
