With a mere two weeks until San Diego Comic-Con 2023’s Preview Night, SDCC has gone from a trickle to a deluge, but it’s going to be OK; you’re reading Under the Tents, where we package your SDCC news in one place and put a bow on it for you. This edition has great news from brilliant artists like Chris Uminga, Joyce Chin, Ashley Wood, and so many more. Oh, right, and we have a little crochet for you as well.
Here’s a look at what you might have missed:
- Artist Stuart Sayger is super excited to be at 10’x10′ Booth #5003 (across from BigWow). He’ll have six new variants of his Red Sonja #1 cover exclusive to the con, or if you want something more personal, he’s also taking walk-up commissions throughout SDCC.
- Insanely talented artist Karen Hallion posted a sneak peek for her Instagram followers at her Star Wars design she’s debuting at Table #BB-16 in Artists’ Alley at SDCC this year.
- Giddy up! Mozy on over to Booth #4700 to find artist Joyce Chin’s latest sketchbook, Cowboys and Angels. Order me a sarsaparilla, will ya, pardner?
- Crochet artist Shozumi will be dropping this beautiful crocheted Coraline somewhere around the convention center during San Diego Comic-Con this year. Hurry and find her before “Other Mother” does.
#minicritterdrop alert!!!
