Marvel fans are going to have plenty to go and see this week in San Diego.
Yep, if you’re a Marvellite, you’ve got quite the panel lineup to attend this week at the San Diego Comic Con. The publishing giant will be talking pretty much everything from Death of Wolverine to Avengers NOW! and all the major changes that they’ve made/are making to their universe, including the new Cap and Thor.
And then of course, while you’re hitting all those panels, don’t forget that there are plenty of free goodies and signings with major talent scheduled to appear at the Marvel Comics booth (#2329) on the show floor as well. Don’t worry, you should have a few minutes here and there to get everything at the booth done between panels. Maybe.
