There’s only 11 more sleeps until San Diego Comic-Con 2018, which means even though it’s a Saturday afternoon, we have tons of Comic-Con news for you. There’s an AMAZING Black Panther print from Le Petit Elefant, news on how you can cast in the Rotten Tomatoes offsite, where to find Kevin Eastman, and so many exclusives and debuts.
Here’s a look at the news you might have missed:
- We’re more than a little in love with this Shuri print from Genevieve Santos of Le Petit Elefant. It’s limited to only 100 pieces at Small Press L-06, but we might fight you for it.
