Marvel Poster Relives the Studio’s Greatest SDCC Moments
Marvel may not have a big panel presentation at this year’s Comic-Con International in San Diego, but that doesn’t mean the popular studio is sitting the convention out completely. The exhibitor floor of SDCC is a place where fans can get all manner of freebies, such as posters, pins, comics and other collectibles, and a particular Marvel Studios poster has already been given out to some lucky fans out there.
The poster, which was first shared online by Comic Book Movie, is meant to celebrate the first 10 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But instead of focusing on the movies, this poster instead focuses on the biggest moments of Marvel’s Hall H panel presentations, reliving some of the greatest hits Marvel brought to fans at SDCC throughout the years.

The poster highlights the many big moments and announcements that Marvel made in San Diego. It starts with Robert Downey, Jr., who showed up at Hall H in 2009 to reveal the first footage of the highly-anticipated sequel, Iron Man 2. Then, it’s on to the 2011 panel presentation, which officially announced the full cast of 2012’s The Avengers, directed by Joss Whedon. And who could forget the Marvel panel, in 2013, when Tom Hiddleston walked onto the stage in his full Loki costume to warm up the crowd?
The other big moments featured on the poster call back to the official casting of Josh Brolin as Thanos in 2014, Brie Larson’s casting as Captain Marvel in 2016 and Ryan Coogler taking to the stage to present Black Panther in 2017.
Marvel is currently in the midst of celebrating its 10-year anniversary, an accomplishment that started with 2008’s Iron Man, which ultimately led to this year’s Avengers: Infinity War. To coincide with the anniversary, Marvel has released special action figures based on their most popular movies, and the Marvel booth at SDCC is already selling many 10th Anniversary t-shirts to fans, as well as many other collectibles and various apparel that highlight the success of all 20 of its films.
