It seems a person, Mark Merlino, involved in getting the first conventions going passed away the other day. So it made me think, was the emergence inevitable.

I'm not certain of that, although probably likely. It could have come to be just focused on produced media, like general comic cons, anime, and other cosplay. Certainly the early founders created the foundation for independent evolution to take place and the initial direction of that evolution.
