SDCC is probably the craziest weekend of the year in terms of comic related news and announcements. We can't blame you if you just want to curl up in a ball and cry whenever you log into Twitter or visit ComicBook.com and see all the announcements just streaming in. Luckily, I'm here to help you with a quick and handy guide to the five biggest announcements of the day.

When is that Deadpool trailer getting released?

You probably heard about the awesome Deadpool trailer released Saturday evening during Fox's Hall H presentation (if you didn't, you can read the top moments from the trailer here). While the footage left Comic-Con attendees amazed, those of us who didn't travel to San Diego wondered if Fox would release the Deadpool trailer to the masses. Ryan Reynolds took to Twitter today to explain that there were unfinished visual effects in the trailer shown last night, but that Fox would release some form of the trailer to the public in three weeks. If you're not happy about the delay, you're not the only one. ComicBook.com staff writer Lucas Siegel wrote this opinion piece about why not releasing the Deadpool trailer last night was a bad idea.

What DC characters will appear on television next season?


Next television season will be a spectacular one for DC fans. During a Hall H presentation late last evening, showrunners for the Flash confirmed that both Jay Garrick and Patty Spivot would appear next season, played by Teddy Sears and Shantel VanSanten. The panel also confirmed that Zoom, a DC villain created by Geoff Johns, would act as the main villain for season 2, and that Wally West would also appear in some capacity. Arrow also dropped a big bomb on panel attendees when they revealed that Mr. Terrific would appear in the fourth season as a colleague of Felicity Smoak. Other DC characters that will appear next season include Hawkman in CW's Legends of Tomorrow and Maxwell Lord, Livewire and Reactron in Supergirl.

What big DC event is returning in 2016?


DC surprised fans this morning by announcing a follow up to this year's popular multidimensional event Multiversity. Grant Morrison will follow up on Multiversity with Multiversity Too, a series of graphic novels that will explore the different worlds of the DC multiverse. Unlike Multiversity, which had a common storyline that linked the standalone issues of the event, Multiversity Too will explore "any story" that the writer (or DC) wants to tell, free of continuity. Morrison's first installment is titled Multiversity Too: The Flash and will hit stores in 2016.

If you're a fan of one-liner jokes and gratuitious violence, you're going to love Spider-Man/Deadpool, the new team up project announced today by Marvel. The series will reunite classic Deadpool creative team Joe Kelly and Ed McGuinness and will feature lots of humor and wisecracks on top of over the top action. No specific release date was given, but Marvel said to look for the book this fall.

What famous Marvel character has a daughter?

Marvel announced a late addition to its upcoming "All New, All Different Marvel NOW!" line with Blade, a new series by Tim Seeley and Logan Faerber. The series teams up the popular Marvel vampire hunter with a new vampire hunter: his 16 year old daughter Fallon Grey. Unlike Blade, a loner for much of his life, Grey is a popular high schooler whose life is turned upside down when supernatural trouble arrives in hometown. Look for the new series in October.
