I’m writing this edition of Under The Tents from Arizona where I feel like burnt toast. It’s HOT but it is one more reason I am super excited to get to San Diego and have a great week. Today’s UTT features news from Patrick Ballesteros, DCD Collects, Now or Never Comics, Amanda Conner & Jimmy Palmiotti, and more.
