The comic world’s longest-running panel is 33 this year and enters the virtual age with Comic-Con@Home! As the comic book world has become a celebrated part of the pop culture world, “Out In Comics” is more relevant than ever before.
Due to the current global pandemic, Comic-Con International has made the decision to go online! Comic-Con @Home 2020 is currently happening and will go on until Sunday, July 26th. It will feature over 350 separate panels that will be available on the Comic-Con YouTube channel.
