  • While urban vinyl toy company DKE hasn’t started to unveil this year’s San Diego Comic-Con exclusives, Jason Adams did offer a sneak peek at the cardbacks for an upcoming “Job Wars” Unemployed Trooper exclusive for DKE. Hey, it’s hard out there for a Storm Trooper.

  • Tommy Andreasen, the co-creator of Ninjago, Legends of Chima, and NEXO Knights, mentioned on Twitter that he will be at San Diego Comic-Con this July, and hinted that several more of the LEGO team will be in attendance as well. While that definitely shouldn’t come as a shock, as LEGO is always well-represented with exclusives, a booth, panels, and more — it’s always nice to see confirmation.

  • Bill Gerhardts, the publisher of BRM comics and co-writer of titles such as Attica, Warden, and others, announced via Twitter that he will be exhibiting this year after a lengthy break from SDCC — though it’s unclear whether it will be through BRM or on his own.

  • It’s all Bob’s Burgers all the time for our friends at toddland (or is it?sounds like you can start getting hyped now for a Teddy exclusive t-shirt). They’ve been busy working on this year’s San Diego Comic-Con exclusives, which we’re excited to show you in the coming weeks — but it . Maybe. Possibly. Oh, just show us what you’ve been up to already, toddland!
