BAD IDEA Announces Star-Studded San Diego Comic Con Panel — Special Guests, Surprise Giveaways, And More!
After last week’s explosive launch, fervor for PLANET DEATH continues to sweep comic shops around the globe. And we’re just getting started. Next week, BAD IDEA makes its triumphant return to San Diego Comic-Con, ready to reveal the next phase of our massive 2025 slate.
We’re kicking things off with our biggest panel ever on Friday July 25th at 5:00 PM in Room 32AB.
The next BAD IDEA blockbuster, CUL-DE-SAC, swoops into stores on August 6th. Get a blood-drenched, behind-the-scenes look at New York Times best-selling writer Mike Carey (LUCIFER) and fine art illustrator Jonathan Wayshak’s (SPAWN: VIOLATOR) upcoming horror masterpiece directly from the series artist himself! Jonathan is ready to answer your CUL-DE-SAC questions, show off all-new pages, and even unveil his jaw-dropping original art live and in person!
Joining Jonathan on stage is the masterminds behind the massive comic book event of the year, blockbuster screenwriter Derek Kolstad (JOHN WICK), New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ’78), and visionary artist Tomás Giorello (STAR WARS) as they dive deep into all things PLANET DEATH!
Plus, a battalion of BAD IDEA impresarios including BAD IDEA CEO Dinesh Shamdasani, Chief Operating Officer Peter Stern, SVP of Film & Television Benjamin Simpson, VP of Sales & Marketing Siena Fallon, and Creative Director Brockton McKinney ready to unveil never-before-seen art, show off brand-new covers, answer your questions, and just maybe tease several new, yet-to-be-announced comic book series. And of course reward attendees with a special, panel-exclusive reward!
All panel attendees will receive a special edition of the book that started it all, PLANET DEATH #0, triple-signed by its superstar creative team, Derek Kolstad, Robert Venditti, and Tomás Giorello. Each copy will come with a limited edition SDCC Certificate of Authenticity, hand-numbered and exclusive to this panel giveaway.
