Greetings and welcome to another edition of WonderPost 2026, where we serve up all things WonderCon, including all the news and glorious tidbits that we have scrounged up from the ever-growing social media sites.

And to be transparent, this post is a doozy. We have dozens of pieces of news to share. You might want to grab a drink, make sure the dog doesn’t need to go outside, put the kids in front of a screen, set an away message for your co-workers…whatever you need to do so you can peruse these perfectly pontificated pieces of pop culture propaganda in peace.

Let’s get started:

• Self-professed “Writer of Weird” posted to Threads announcing their 2026 convention schedule, which includes WonderCon, where she will be at Small Press Booth #SP-80.

• Also, over on Threads, Spero Toys, makers of the action-adventure figure series and comic books Animal Warriors of the Kingdom, posted that WonderCon is one of the places they will be showing off their line of products this spring.

• Artist and creator Basia Tluchak revealed sketches of their Stranger Things inspired acrylic standee “The Squawk with Rockin Robin” which will be available in person at WonderCon.

• Folks who love both video game soundtracks and vinyl records are in luck. Fine purveyor of both, Materia, will be over at Booth #1437.

🚨Newsflash!🚨We're attending these events next month, and we're looking forward to hang out with you!March 5 – 8 / Emerald City Comic Con / Seattle, WAMarch 21 – 22 / VinylCon LA / Los Angeles, CAMarch 26 – 29 / PAX East / Boston, MAMarch 27 – 29 / WonderCon / Anaheim, CA

• Artist Nate Lovett is still accepting commission requests, but if you’re indecisive (like me!) and you want to see a plethora of characters in his style, be sure to find him at WonderCon. He’s hard at working making a stack of originals for the show.

Started coloring the characters I’ve been doing. Figured I’d start with one of my favorites to draw.I’ve got a bunch more started that I’ll be inking and coloring up too. I’m hoping to have a nice stack for @wondercon .#ahsoka #starwars

• It’s only halfway through February and already artist Don Aguillo has nine different conventions on his schedule. WonderCon is just one of them, but for the purposes of this post, absolutely the most important.

• Artist and creator Jeff Pina (he of the many, many, many original art pieces) is bringing something brand new to the table: the WonderCon exhibit table, that is. Volume Two of his “Loss of Signal” series is in the can and set to make its debut at the show.

• Artist Jeprox is taking some inspiration from the forthcoming Ghost in the Shell series in order to bring WonderCon attendees some fantastic new art.

 

• We’ve got a few weeks to go before we get the official WonderCon panel schedule, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t seeing some hints as moderators receive their approvals. Let’s do a quick round-up of all the panel announcements we’ve found so far:
  • Comic educator Mikey had two panels approved.

• • Angel Halo Chang will be hosting something for all ages with “Discovering Our Unique Superpowers: A Creative Workshop for Families”.

• • Luck was on the side of Ronnel Ricardo Parham, actor, writer, director and all-around great guy. He’ll be hosting a yet-to-be-revealed panel at WonderCon.

• • Are you ready for the SPICE? Skewed and Reviewed’s Gareth will be chatting up sandworms and all things House Atreides in his panel “Dune: Where Do We Go From Here?“

Our WonderCon panel has been set.
Dune: Where Do We Go From Here?
Room, date, and time will be revealed when the schedule is released.

• • Author of Lady Comic Book History, Alexandrea Callaghan, might be one of the most polite folks to announce their WonderCon panel. She even said “please!” How can you say no to that?

• Lastly (for panels anyway), the D&D / Taylor Swift podcast Legend of Taylore will be bringing their special brand of memes, music and lore back to WonderCon. I hope I’m in my critical hit era.

• Now, back to ways to relieve you of all your hard-earned money… On Instagram, comic retailer Animocity posted two exclusive Invincible exclusive covers they will have in partnership with Tenfwd Comics, one by Rose Besch and another by Chris Johnson.

• If there is one thing you can count on, it’s that BB-CRE.8 will bring the heat with their enamel pins. It looks like, based on this Twitter post, we have seven pins to look forward to.

We’re getting ready for #wondercon with 7 exclusive enamel pins! We’re even running a pretty awesome special too if you’re going to be collecting a lot! pic.twitter.com/eoi85WvOEw

• Are you OBSESSED with Marvel Rivals? Well, you’re not alone. Talent and event company Giant Size Productions is bringing the Marvel Rivals heat to WonderCon with at least three heavy-hitting voice actors from the NetEase/Marvel game for autographs and selfies at booth #DL-18. Plan on meeting Alpha Takahashi (voice of Psylocke),  Daniel Marin (Namor) and Eliah Mountjoy (Winter Soldier). Also buried deep in the caption, a Marvel Rivals panel!

• Artist Emma LeRae will be bringing her fun and funky fine art to WonderCon, among other appearances this spring.

• Certified (by me) artist of all things cute, Wifi4Dogs is bringing some brand new stickers with them to WonderCon. If you’re anything like me, stickers are your kryptonite, and you’ll want one of each.

• Great news over on Twitter from friend and illustrator/creator Priscilla Wilson. Her WonderCon exclusives have been APPROVED! BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE! Three words: Freebie. Stamp. Rally.

The fine folks at WonderCon have approved my exclusives/debut as well as the freebie stamp rally. Contracts have been signed. ECCC announcements have to come first, but WonderCon is definitely shaping up!

Adding this appropriate pic just for funsies:

• Artist Sean Forney is bringing a variety of sweet swag bags to WonderCon, each featuring an assortment of stickers, magnets, lanyards, and temporary tattoos. Forney is also still taking commission requests.

• And finally today, here is a little round up of some other folks who, while they haven’t posted on social media, have updated their websites to indicate that they will be attending:
