New York Comic Con is about to get swinging, and fans are eyeing the show's big names for some announcements. While comic giants like Marvel and DC will be present, manga won't be slacking thanks to Viz Media and more. In fact, the manga publisher will host a panel on Friday, and fans of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure are keeping a close eye on the event.

Taking to Twitter, JoJo fans began buzzing when Viz Media hyped up its imminent panel. The publisher posted a vague checklist for the panel, and it was there Viz Media teased a "surprise announcement" of sorts.

It should come as no surprise that fans were hyped about the tease, and JoJo fans took it a step further. After all, the NYCC panel is meant to feature talent from One-Punch Man and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. The immediately buzzed with one another about the panel, and it seems the fandom is relying on the event to announce the official English dub cast of JoJo's latest season.

Earlier this year, fans did see JoJo bring its latest season to an end, and it went over very well with fans. In fact, the latest season of JoJo converted fans to the franchise who had never tried it before, so the excitement for its English dub is real. Viz Media has always done well with its casting for JoJo, but there is something special about Giorno which the company needs to nail. So, here's to hoping JoJo fans do not wind up disappointed by the big panel tomorrow morning.
