First Comic-Con of the MeToo era is already grappling with sexual harassment amid allegations against panel moderator and mainstay Chris Hardwick

The first Comic-Con of the MeToo era kicks off Wednesday night in San Diego

The event has already been changed, with at least one notable figure stepping aside due to sexual misconduct allegations

Nerdist founder Chris Hardwick, a mainstay at Comic-Con and moderator of numerous panels, stepped aside amid allegations from an ex-girlfriend

The allegations surfaced just weeks ago - and Hardwick has denied them

The annual gathering sees over 130,000 fans, artists, collectors and geek culture savants

Attendees, otherwise called cosplayers, are donned in a variety of costumes

Skimpy character costumes have been banned in attempt to stop objectification
