HERE’S THE DOWNLOADABLE COMIC-CON@HOME SOUVENIR BOOK — ALL 260 PAGES!

When attendees to San Diego Comic-Con arrive at the convention center each year, they are provided a free carrying bag (usually sponsored by Warner Bros), an extended printed programming guide, and a souvenir book, full of gorgeous photos and tons of cool articles celebrating fandom. And even though this year’s physical convention has been cancelled because of “the ‘Rona,” the fine folks at Comic-Con International have pulled out all the stops to make sure we experience as much of the physical convention as possible. Therefore, they’ve posted the 260-page 2020 souvenir book — a beautifully illustrated and written downloadable PDF celebrating all your favorite fandoms.
