The Shout! Factory officially announced its Comic-Con@Home 2020 line up today and we couldn’t be more excited. The full press release is below. Let us know if you will be attending!
Pop culture fans rejoice! Although the traditional San Diego Comic-Con will not be held this year, Shout! Factory is pleased to announce it will be participating in the convention’s official virtual event, Comic-Con@Home, as well as programming supplementary content for the company’s streaming channel, Shout! Factory TV. Comic-Con@Home will be held on the same dates as the previously canceled Comic-Con, July 22-26, 2020. All aspects of Comic-Con@Home 2020 are free and there are no limits to how many can attend a panel.
MSTies worldwide can tune into the Comic-Con@Home channel on Thursday, July 23 at 6 pm PT, for Mystery Science Theater 3000 – A Panel Panorama. Join Erik Adams (The AV Club) as he leads a discussion with MST3K creator Joel Hodgson and former cast members Bill Corbett (Crow T. Robot # 2) and J. Elvis Weinstein (Tom Servo # 1) as they engage in some good old-fashioned Q & A. To watch the panel, visit Comic-Con@Home’s official YouTube channel.
Shout! Factory will also host a virtual booth through Comic-Con@Home’s official website, where fans will see pre-order pages for upcoming releases, introductions to Shout! Factory TV channels, Shout! Factory’s annual sale of Con-centric titles and a shopping spree contest in which three lucky winners will be picked.
For fans who can’t get enough con-related programming, Shout! Factory TV will be streaming a marathon of pop-culture favorites from July 22 through July 26 entitled Shout! Stays In. Showcasing episodes from beloved tokusatsu series Ultraman Leo, Kamen Rider and Super Sentai; cult superhero films including Guardians and Rendel: Dark Vengeance, graphic novel documentaries such as The Image Revolution and Neil Gaiman: Dream Dangerously; Shout! Factory convention panels from years past; and content from TokuSHOUTsu and MST3K new to Shout! Factory TV, there’s something for all con fans to enjoy from the safety of their home.
