Il San Diego Comic-Con pubblica il suo programma eventi dedicato al mondo della TV, ancora non del tutto definitivo ma sicuramente già molto ricco e interessante.
Dal 20 luglio fino alla domenica del 24 il San Diego Comic-Con aprirà i battenti. Al suo interno, oltre ad ogni tipo di stand, vip e gadget dedicati a fumetti, cinema, libri e televisione, saranno organizzati eventi di presentazione dei nuovi progetti di canali TV e case di produzione. Netflix presenterà il suo Luke Cage, USA Network porterà i protagonisti di Mr.Robot, mentre la HBO discuterà le ultime due puntata della sesta stagione di Game of Thrones e il futuro della serie stessa. Interessante anche il panel su American Gods con Neil Gaiman e tutti gli appuntamenti della CW con i relativi supereroi a seguito.
