Adult Swim, the global leader in adult animation, unveiled its ambitious plans for San Diego Comic-Con today. First and foremost, the network will host an ongoing Pirate-themed fan “parrrty” featuring a series of special evening events, exclusive panels diving into key Adult Swim programs, and the kick-off of a cross-country mobile tour to celebrate “Rick and Morty: The Anime.”
Adult Swim PIRATE PARRRTY – No Badge Required
As part of the festivities, Adult Swim will crash onto the shores of San Diego with a shipwreck adventure on the network’s Adult Swim on the Green space outside the San Diego Convention Center (5th Avenue Landing and Convention Way).
