As most of you are (im)patiently waiting for news on badge sales, Comic-Con International has offered the first official word on just who you can find at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con.

From the Toucan Blog, here’s the list of the first Special Guests headed to SDCC 2017:

• Brigitte Findakly • Writer, Poppies of Iraq
• Eduardo Risso • Artist, 100 Bullets, Moonshine, Torpedo 1972
• Bruce Timm • Artist, animator, director, producer, Batman The Animated Series, Batman and Harley Quinn
• Lewis Trondheim • Writer, artist, Dungeon, A.L.I.E.E.E.N., Poppies of Iraq

Special guests typically receive a special “Spotlight” panel during the convention, so attendees have a chance to hear their favorite authors and artists speak live.

According to CCI, they’ll announce five additional guests next Monday – so keep your eyes peeled for more exciting announcements. You can also catch up on tons of other things and people who will be at San Diego Comic-Con in our Under the Tents updates.
