San Diego Comic-Con is officially next month, which means we’ve got tons of San Diego Comic-Con news coming at you, including news of a Legion M offsite (that you can help with), a “Bird Box” exclusive that you weren’t expecting, awesome fashion, and more.
Here’s a look at the news you might have missed:

Hear about their experiences, learn how to join organized groups, learn about some of the organizations that receive help and find out how to get involved in service efforts. You can find more information on their Facebook page.
