There’s been so much SDCC news lately, we thought it was June around the UBlog. Alas, it’s only February, and San Diego Comic-Con is still 158 days away. That doesn’t mean we don’t have awesome news from Han Cholo Designs, TMNT creator Kevin Eastman, and a lot more in this edition of Under the Tents. Grab your box of chocolates and enjoy.
Here’s a look at what you might have missed:
- Han Cholo Designs (one of my personal favorite SDCC veterans), will once again be back at San Diego Comic-Con, according to their Instagram feed.
