This year’s San Diego Comic Con is just over a week away and there’s lots to be excited about whether you’ll be at the Con itself, or just keeping an eye on all the reveals from the comfort of your home. DC has now revealed some of its plans (though we suspect there may be more still to come…) and a schedule for the panels that will be taking place throughout the event, which you can find below.
The publisher has also revealed some of the comics talent that will be taking part. Expect to see Mark Waid, Jeph Loeb, Joshua Williamson, Josie Campbell, Rafael Grampá, Tom King, Tom Taylor, Jeremy Adams, Ram V, Nicole Maines, and more taking part.
DC will also be unveiling a new, larger multi-level DC Booth (#4545) on the convention floor that will open on Wednesday July 24 and run until Sunday July 28. There you’ll be able to pick up exclusive comics, toys, and merch – including the first official merchandise from next year’s Superman film, and the Creature Commandos animated series.
