During the whole interview she didn't ask me for any document, and it was more towards my business etc.

Interview is not the only thing, there are various other factors being considered while evaluating your visa application. You are the only best person to evaluate it.

Are you married?/earning good in Pak?/Have any dependents? etc.

They just wanna ensure that you'll return back after your visit.

[asimrs]

Yes I am married, earning good in Pk, have dependents also but she didn't ask anything about this.

Just a guess, might be the event "comic culture event" is not worth enough to have someone travel from Pak to USA?

It seems they didn't let you in because you didn't have a reason serious enough to visit the US
