The San Diego Comic-Con news train keeps rolling right along. This past week saw panel approvals go out from CCI, so if you submitted a panel idea for SDCC 2018, you should have received an answer. We also have some new stuff from Symbiote Studios, Dead Zebra, and much more.
Here’s a look at what you might have missed:
- Prolific creator Susan Lee was excited to announce via Twitter that her Women on the Dark Side panel was approved for SDCC 2018. Stay tuned for more details on date, time, and location.

- Give me a break! But please don’t break me off a piece of Dead Zebra’s Kill Kats.

Make it to Booth #1335 fast if you want to grab one of these.
- If you’re looking for the best, most exhilarating game of rock-paper-scissors at SDCC, we highly recommend visiting Symbiote Studios at Booth #5636 early and often.
