Kevin Smith fans may not be getting Mooby’s milkshakes this year, but they might still be treated to sharp wit and behind-the-scenes stories at San Diego Comic-Con 2025.

While it sounds like Mooby’s, the beloved fictional fast-food pop-up from the View Askewniverse that has taken over the Tin Roof in the Gaslamp several years, won’t be returning to San Diego Comic-Con this year, Smith himself is still likely to make an appearance — just in a slightly different form.

[UPDATE June 20]

In a recent episode of Fatman Beyond, Smith confirmed that he will still be hosting his typical Saturday Hall H panel — just without the Marvel lead-in. Fans can still expect “shows” though.

On the latest episode of his Fat Man Beyond podcast, Smith hinted, “We don’t have Tin Roof Inn so we’re not going to be doing the movies, but I hear rumors that we may have gigs.” His co-host Marc Bernardin added, “I’ve heard similar rumors.”

The mention of “gigs” certainly sounds like Smith’s signature live comedy shows, which have been fan-favorites at past cons — and it sounds like Fat Man Beyond is likely to be one of the offerings.

That would, however, seemingly rule out Dogma: The Resurrection Tour, Smith’s traveling 25th anniversary celebration of his cult classic 1999 film. The tour, which features screenings of Dogma (a rare event due to long-standing distribution issues) followed by live Q&As, has been hitting select cities this year — but SDCC may not be on the list.

Stay tuned for official announcements, snoochie boochies.
