WonderPost: Hero Complex Gallery, Panels, Umbrella Corps, Rick and Morty, Toy Tokyo Funko, BeeFy & Co

WonderCon is just over two weeks away – which means that we’ll start to see the full, official schedule beginning Friday of this week. But there’s plenty of other news to be had for the March 25-27 convention, including news about what to expect from Hero Complex Gallery, a first-look at some panels, news about games you can play from both Capcom and Nintendo, a Funko exclusive that will be at the con, and much more.

Here’s a look at what you might have missed:

  • Bleeding Cool has the details on a very mighty exclusive for San Diego Comic-Con. Rich Johnston reports that BOOM! Studios’ covers for Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers #1, with exclusives set to appear at WonderCon, ECCC, San Diego Comic-Con, and New York Comic Con, will connect to create a four-part image. From Bleeding Cool, here’s a look at the Emerald City Comicon cover:

  • Ron Coleman and Maya Mazon’s parody comic, Kevin: The Drunk Jedi, will be available at the RNA Brand Ent. Booth #SP088 at WonderCon. To quote the comic, may the drunkenness be with you.

  • Although they haven’t yet revealed specifics, Hero Complex Gallery will be in the double-sized Booth #2203, and will be bringing along “a number of your favorite artists” and holding special events during WonderCon. One artist we do know will be in attendance? Ape Meets Girl, who told /film that, “I’ve worked on a couple of things with Hero Complex Gallery which we’ll be debuting at Wondercon this month, and I’ll be flying over for that too so come and say hi.” We’ll update you once we have more.

  • Collider will be holding a Collider Heroes panel this year, with Heroic Hollywood’s Umberto Gonzalez appearing on the panel.

  • Speaking of panels, there’s plenty of awesomeness to be found in the CCI-released schedule of Fan Culture Panels. Although the full schedule will be released starting this Thursday, CCI unveiled information about panels such as The Psychology of the Marvel TV Universe with writers D.J. Doyle (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Jose Molina and Lindsey Allen (Agent Carter), and Christos Gage (Daredevil). There’s also I’m in the Nerd Business with panelists from Loot Crate, Badali Jewelry, Nerdstrong Gym, and more – as well as a look as The Asian American Superhero with Jim Lee, Maurissa Tancharoen (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), and more. Check out all the Fan Culture Panels on the Toucan Blog. That’s shaping up to be a lot of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. at WonderCon. We’re just sayin’.
  • Sean Glumace will alos be bringing his Full-Time Creative Work on a Part-Time Schedule back to SDCC on Sunday, March 27, according to his blog.
