"Top 10" things to look forward to at SDCC 2014

With San Diego Comic Con just around the corner, one of our fellow nerds, Kenny, gave us a Top-10 list of things to anticipate and hope for at SDCC this year. Here they are:

 1. Star Wars Rebels
The new animated show for Star Wars on The Disney Channel and Disney XD this fall should prove a hot topic. What kind of tidbits will be revealed about the show before the first episode airs and what information from the panel will be revealed? It should be an exciting week for Star Wars Rebels news at SDCC 2014.

2. Marvel
It is safe to assume the executives at Marvel will have some big things planned for the con with Guardians of the Galaxy coming out in August and Avengers: Age of Ultron coming out in May 2015. Not to mention the next season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the new series Agent Carter etc. Marvel always seem to have good stuff planned for SDCC and this year will be no exception .

3. All the Licenses
What does Hasbro have planned for The Star Wars and Marvel Toy Lines? What does Sideshow Collectibles, Gentle Giant, Hot Wheels and more have planned not only for this year and the beginning of next year going forward? We shall see and hopefully have lots to look forward to from those Licenses.

4. Doctor Who
With Series 8 coming August 23, what will be revealed about this upcoming season? Also, what kind of toys and collectibles for Series 8 will Character Options and Underground Toys have for the Whovians? Hopefully some Doctor Who news out of SDCC 2014 will come our way.

5. Fall TV Shows
Sci-Fi/Fantasy series like Arrow, Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries, The Flash, Gotham, Once Upon A Time, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. , Marvel's Agent Carter, and who knows what else may be in store, or even revealed at the Con. 

6. Materials
What new products will be on display at SDCC that we have not seen before and have not been leaked out yet? Only time will tell if anything new will be seen in San Diego.

7. Summer 2015
Many movies, including Age of Ultron are due in Summer of '15. We can't expect them to reveal much, but more information than what we have currently would be nice to see.

8. Star Wars Novels
With Tarkin and A New Dawn coming out, some new info about the books in this new Star Wars Canon can be expected.

9. Star Wars Comics 
Hopefully SDCC 2014 will bring some news about the upcoming Star Wars Comic Stories from Marvel Coming out in 2015.

10. Miscellaneous
There's almost always an unexpected surprise revealed at a convention of this size and magnitude. What surprise, and what series is still to be determined. As always, just enjoy the con itself. From the vendor floor to the cosplayers and panels, be sure to embrace the moment if you have the privilege of attending SDCC 2014.
