Dark Horse Comics announces full programming schedule for San Diego Comic Con 2019

Dark Horse Comics has released its complete programming scheduled for this year’s San Diego Comic Con 2019.

SDCC 2019 SIGNING SCHEDULE

All creators signing in our booth offer their autographs for FREE. FREE prints, comics, or posters are provided for most of our signings (while supplies last). You may purchase or bring items to be signed; however, we may restrict the type or number of items to be signed as necessary.

Some signings require a wristband for entry, as noted on the schedule. Drawings for wristbands for these events will begin at show opening the day before and day of each signing. Come to the Dark Horse booth early for the best chance to join these events.

Lines may also be closed for some signings due to crowding or time restrictions.

We have two signing stages. One features art by Mike Mignola for Hellboy and the other showcases the art from the upcoming Stranger Things comics! The following abbreviations indicate the location of each signing:

HB = Hellboy Signing Stage ST = Stranger Things Stage
