Due to the COVID-19 shutdowns, one of the biggest pop culture events of the year, San Diego Comic-Con International, will not be held, but organizers have managed to pull together some of the biggest names in entertainment to provide a virtual Comic-Con that millions will be able to view from the safety and comfort of their homes.
Below are the panels for Saturday and once again, there seems to be something for every sort of fan, whether your thing is technology, gaming, manga and anime, animation, collecting or just about anything else that’s good and nerdy.
‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ returns for a victory lap, in celebration of its final season. Keanu Reeves will pop up twice, as part of a retrospective for ‘Constantine’ and for his upcoming film, ‘Bill & Ted Face the Music’. Peacock will make its Comic-Con debut to promote its new series ‘Brave New World’, while HBO will plug its upcoming ‘Lovecraft Country’.
Of course, there are plenty more panels to choose from. Check out the listing below. Times are Pacific.:
