As I’ve noted in an earlier post, I’m helping the good people at ForeverGeek.com cover San Diego Comic-Con 2014 this year.
I just wanted to give you a bit of a heads up on a post I put together last night that focuses on some of the smaller panels at Comic-Con. Yeah, I’ll be lining up for Hall H like thousands of others, but I’m going to fight my hardest to get to a few different panels in the other rooms when I can.
I like a lot of different stuff, but I already know I can’t get to even a fraction of these panels. You might have different tastes. That’s okay. Just spend some of that time before you head to San Diego going over the schedule online or highlighting some favorites in the program while sitting in another line this week. You can even use the official San Diego Comic-Con app to make your own custom schedule if you like.
Below are a few comic related picks from each day of the con, but I’ve got a lot more to share. To see 18 more panels that I’ve selected from the enormous programming list, head over to ForeverGeek.com…
