As it was pointed out on our last SDConCast, SDCC is next week! But it’s all good – you’re going to be completely prepared, because you read The San Diego Comic-Con Unofficial Blog’s Under the Tents column every day. And we appreciate that! In this UTT, we have great SDCC news from Disney artists galore like Amy Mebberson and Lorelay Bové, authors Shannon Messenger and Raymond E. Feist, and a whole lot more.
Here’s a look at what you might have missed:
- Justin Harder is bringing so much stuff to SDCC, we don’t know how it’s going to fit on his Small Press Table #O-08. These prints will make you want to give him more of your money (as if he wasn’t already taking enough of it).

- One of Disney’s most prolific artists, Amy Mebberson, took some time out from her massive D23 preps to tease a little SDCC exclusive. Like Brad Pitt, we’re left wondering, “What’s in the box?!” You’ll have to run to Table #F-07 to find out.
