The floodgates are open. Returning Registration (formerly Preregistration) is soon upon us, and more artists/exhibitors are announcing their presence at SDCC. Are you ready for Saturday? Check out our Returning Registration Visual Guide to make sure you are. In the meantime, you can mark more items on your Comic-Con calendar.

- Our friends at Factory Entertainment always have something fun up their sleeves at San Diego Comic-Con – whether it’s last year’s Back to the Future keychain set to take you back to SDCC 2016, or a talking George R.R. Martin plush doll. What do they have in store for the convention this year? Nothing official yet, but when official Twitter account for the Game of Thrones showed off a The Hand of the King Bottle Opener, Factory Entertainment suggested to “keep your eyes peeled this July”. Sounds promising. Very promising.
Send a raven.
