With just a little over three weeks until San Diego Comic-Con 2022 triumphantly returns to San Diego, news has gone from a trickle to a steady stream. This issue of Under the Tents has some juicy SDCC news from The Sandman, Patrick Ballesteros, Image Comics, and a lot more. Warning: This issue is hot!
Let’s take a look at the news you might have missed:
- We’ve already had plenty of Dragon related news today, why not some more? B Side Management posted pic of yesterday’s Deadline article, adding in Jenna Coleman and Kirby Howell-Baptiste will both be there for The Sandman. They also mentioned Matt Smith, who was confirmed today for House of the Dragon.
- I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again…. that Patrick sure knows how to make anything cute…. and BOYS, do I mean anything! Here’s a set of originals depicting characters from The Boys that Patrick will be bringing with him to SDCC.

- In case that didn’t convince you, here’s Patrick’s latest SDCC mini-original featuring the best investigative reporter in comics, TMNT‘s April O’Neil. Jessica who?
- There’s room for everyone at San Diego Comic-Con, even the world’s tiniest heroes. These little cuties will be a part of the Geeky Hooker’s critter drops. It’s all about “finders keepers” when it comes to these heroes.
- Artist Val Hochberg is starting the coloring process on all…*checks notes* ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT originals that she’ll be offering at San Diego Comic-Con. Looks like she is starting with this cheerful Star Wars inspired piece.

- According to a recent press release from SDCC mainstays Sideshow Collectibles, they are returning to SDCC Booth #1929 this year and bringing their usual awesomeness with them.
