It’s beginning to feel a lot like… San Diego Comic-Con news season? Yes, we finally have enough news to update with our first SDCC 2017 Under the Tents edition, full of exhibitors who will be attending the convention this year.
So who can you find on the show floor in 2017? Let’s take a look:
- Illustrator and creator Erik Arreaga will return for the 20th year to exhibit at San Diego Comic-Con 2017.
- Artist Alex Ross – a SDCC mainstay – is once again returning to the convention, and he’s bringing along some ghoulish fiends. Alex Ross Fine Art will be launching the Classic Universal Monsters Set at SDCC 2017, which includes Boris Karloff’s 1931 Frankenstein, Bela Lugosi’s 1931 Dracula, Elsa Lanchester’s 1935 Bride of Frankenstein, the 1954 Creature from the Black Lagoon, Boris Karloff’s 1932 The Mummy, Lon Chaney Jr’s 1941 The Wolf Man, Claude Rains’ 1933 The Invisible Man, and Monster Mash.
- Our friends at Toddland are movin’ on up – but to where exactly, we’ll have to wait and see. We can’t wait to see how they plan to top their Bob’s Burger booth from 2016.
