Arrow Special Video Presentation and Q&A
Where/When: Saturday 5:15pm - 6:00pm Ballroom 20
The CW’s Arrow is quickly becoming one of our favorite shows but it’s also a great place for other geek actors we love to land. This panel is only 45 minutes long but will have stars Stephen Amell, Katie Cassidy, and David Ramsey in appearance. Though actor John Barrowman will be at SDCC, could he make a surprise appearance? And perhaps the newly-cast Summer Glau? -Jill
Marvel Studios: Thor: The Dark World and Captain America: the Winter Soldier
Where/When: Saturday 6:00PM - 7:00PM Hall H
Though the description on SDCC’s website doesn’t give away too much information, it goes without saying that the next two installments in Marvel’s Avengers movie canon (Thor: The Dark World and Captain America: The Winter Soldier) are two of the most hotly anticipated films out there. It’s also worth mentioning that the new Peggy Carter short will be previewing at SDCC, and this is most likely where you’ll find it! Join Marvel Studios president and producer Kevin Feige and lots of special guests to talk about what’s next in the Avengersverse. - Brooke
Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD on ABC
Where/When: Friday 1:45pm - 3:00pm, Ballroom 20
Joss Whedon, Jeph Loeb (Marvel’s head of television), and “special guests” are getting together to talk Agents of SHIELD, top-secret info, and more! Get all of the deets on the newest Whedon show and see nerd history in the making. You better believe this is a panel of essential attendance no Marvel fan can miss! -Brooke
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Where/When: Friday 4:05pm - 6:15pm, Hall H
Unfortunately for fans with a penchant for efficiency, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has to share its panel with the rest of Sony's lineup, including Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, and the Robocop reboot. But with much of the shooting for the movie in the bag, there may be some big announcements in store for folks who stick it out. -Susana
The Walking Dead & TWD 10th Anniversary panel w/ Robert Kirkman
Where/When: Friday 1:35-2:30, Hall H
We're promised a massive lineup for the Walking Dead panel, with eight cast members, four producers (including, naturally, Robert Kirkman), special effects guru Greg Nictero and all of them moderated by The Talking Dead's Chris Hardwick. - Susana
Neil Gaiman
Where/When:
Will Eisner and the Graphic Novel, Saturday 2pm-3, Room 23ABC
If you want to watch Neil Gaiman, Scott McCloud, Jeff Smith, Denis Kitchen, and moderator Paul Levitz talk about the grandfather of modern American comics language, and, really, why wouldn't you, then this is your panel.
Vertigo: Sandman 25th Anniversary and Beyond!, Saturday 3:15pm-4:15, Room 6DE
But if you'd rather just find out more about Sandman: Overture, then this is your panel.
You'll also find the author at Jack Kirby Tribute Panel, Sunday 10am-11:15, Room 5AB, Spotlight on Neil Gaiman, Sunday 3pm-4, Room 6DE, and quite possibly Harper Voyager U.S. and Harper Teen/Epic Reads: Enter Worlds of Pandemonium and Peril, Mystery and Magic, Fiction and Fantasy!, Saturday 7pm-8, Room 9. Gaiman isn't confirmed for this panel, but Harper Collins promises special guests and will definitely be talking about his upcoming YA book Fortunately, The Milk, so there's a good chance he'll be here as well. - Susana
