Ever since the halcyon days of 1970 (with the exception of two years we won’t speak of), one thing has drawn thousands to San Diego Comic-Con each year — art. SDCC is one of the magical places you can go to meet the artist(s) behind your favorite comics, talk to them, and even commission original artwork from them. Of course, these commissions take time, and while some artists offer walk-up commissions at their table, many like to prepare in advance and open commissions prior to SDCC.
We’ve compiled a list of artists who have opened their SDCC pre-convention commissions. This list will change as we get closer to the con, so if you don’t see your favorite artist listed, keep checking back.
