San Diego Comic-Con Begins Today in The Daily LITG, 19th July 2023

Most stories yesterday were looking ahead to San Diego Comic-Con starting today. Welcome to your Daily Lying In The Gutters.


Looks like yesterday, people started reading more than just Superman in the shower, with news on the It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia podcast, the cancellation of Heavy Metal Magazine Volume 2, suggestions of a Zatanna/Robot Man comic and Ms Marvel joining the X-Men.  But most stories yesterday were looking to San Diego Comic-Con starting today. This world can seem like a terrible and strange place sometimes, but at Bleeding Cool, you can still read all about comics, merch, TV shows, games, movies, and more. The Daily Lying In The Gutters remains a long-running run around the day before and the day ahead. You can sign up to receive it as an e-mail here.
