Two weeks from today, San Diego Comic-Con will be starting. Go ahead and freak out. We are.
We’ve got an early morning Under the Tents for you, with updates on artists like Jason Edmiston and Patrick Ballesteros, free pins, new Firefly patches, a tease from G4, and more Grogus than you’ll know what to do with.
Here’s a look at some of the news you might have missed:
- One of our favorite comic shops, Now or Never Comics, will be kickstarting SDCC week with two signings. Swing by on Tuesday, July 19 from 3pm-7pm for a signing with comic writer Ryan Cady, or Wednesday, July 20 from 5:30pm-7:30pm for a signing with comic writer Erica Schultz.
