Liz OhanesianCheck out our Comic-Con picks for Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Sunday is Kids' Day at San Diego Comic-Con. Throughout the day, there will be lots of events for the young ones. But, if you don't have kids and you're not completely exhausted, there might be a few panels for you too. If you've been running around from panel to panel all week, don't forget to check out the Exhibit Hall on Sunday. We'll have spotlights of artists exhibiting at Comic-Con beginning later this week.
Check out our highlights from the Sunday July 25 schedule. See the full schedule on SDCC's webite.
