Here’s a look at what you might have missed:
- The Heroes in a Half Shell join Patrick Ballesteros’ “Can You Hear Me Now” series he’s bringing with him to Table #DD-08 In Artists Alley at SDCC 2018 for their debut.

- Fans of Supergirl‘s Melissa Benoist cleverly noticed that, although she is set to star in Broadway’sĀ Beautiful: The Carol King Musical this summer, she will not be present for the July 20 or July 21 performances. Does this mean the Girl of Steel is flying in for SDCC? We imagine it would be on a red-eye, but it seems pretty likely.
Melissa Benoist will not be in the roles of "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" on July 21 and 22
Remember that SDCC 2018 is from July 19 to 22 ….
Maybe Melissa will be present at San Diego ComicCon. #Supergirl pic.twitter.com/xkTk7edGAd
