You may have thought there was no hope left for Comic-Con 2020. But, SDCC is going ahead, after all! For the first time in Comic-Con’s 50-year history, the annual convention will take place online between July 22-26 and will be free for everyone!

You’ll be able to print your own badges, watch the panels and presentations and even purchase limited edition merchandise through the planned Online Exhibit Hall! And you’ll be able to do that all from home! Here’s the statement below:

Although conditions prevent celebrating in person, the show, as they say, must go on. With Comic-Con@Home, SDCC hopes to deliver the best of the Comic-Con experience and a sense of its community to anyone with an internet connection and an interest in all aspects of pop culture. Plans for Comic-Con@Home include an online Exhibit Hall complete with everyone’s favorite exhibitors offering promotions, specials, and limited-edition products unique to the celebration. As well, Comic-Con@Home promises exclusive panels and presentations about comics, gaming, television, film, and a wide variety of topics from publishers, studios, and more. As if that weren’t enough, Comic-Con@Home will also have a Masquerade, gaming, and many other activities in which fans can participate from their own homes. Read more…

#ComicConAtHome already sounds promising and might just be the highlight of 2020!
