Friday’s schedule

Starting off Friday’s panel is an oldie; Star Trek vs. Star Wars. A debate that’s been waged since the ’70s. This panel will look at Star Trek’s Discovery and Picard, while also looking at Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker.

"Friday 5:00 – 6:00pm: The Psychology of Star Trek vs. Star Wars Back by popular demand, the Trek vs Wars discussion returns to Comic-Con in Episode VI, with examinations of Discovery, Picard, and, of course, Rise of Skywalker! Designed to engage the audience in a healthy–but fun–debate, this panel explores meaningful topics of psychology prominent in Star Trek & Star Wars. Who’s more emotionally intelligent, Picard or Luke? How do hero characters Rey and Burnham show us healthy coping and self-care?
