Under The Tents: Sleepy Hollow, Heroes Brew Fest, Star Wars Rebels, Simon & Schuster

It’s another news filled week as we wait for San Diego Comic-Con to announce Open Online Registration, which we know is expected to happen sometime in the spring. As we await the announcement of that highly anticipated sale, why not sit back, relax and enjoy a glimpse into what the Con will have to offer up to us this year. This week we have more artist confirmations, more news on panels, the return of a popular offsite event, and more.

Here’s what you may have missed:
