Oni Press has provided ComciBook.com with a first look at its complete slate of guests, signings, and exclusives for Comic Con International 2023 in San Diego. The convention, which takes place next month, is in a state of flux as a result of the SAG-AFTRA strike, which is preventing most film and TV studios from attending since actors can’t be part of their presentations. The good news for comics publishers is that this will leave them in a position to command more of the audience’s attention than they have in years.
