We are coming down to the wire, folks; San Diego Comic-Con 2022 is in less than a week. Surely, you’ve started getting ready by now. This edition of Under the Tents has some epic SDCC news from heavy hitters like Phineas and Ferb co-creator Dan Povenmeyer, retailer Factory Entertainment, and so much beautiful art!
Here’s a look at what you might have missed:

There will be four LE pins available for purchase, including two silver and two gold in Shoyru, Kacheek, Kougra, and JubJub designs. There will also be new jewelry designs and their plush lines on sale.
