Comic-Con 2019: Here’s your Wednesday schedule

Comic-Con International starts Wednesday, July 17, with a preview night that helps attendees get badges early and avoid massive lines the next day.

The biggest treat for fans will be the premiere of two Batman-related TV shows in Ballroom 20. The pilot episodes of “Batwoman,” a CW show featuring Bruce Wayne’s cousin, and “Pennyworth”, an Epix prequel series about the Dark Knight’s butler.

Here are some highlights with official descriptions courtesy of the folks at Comic-Con.

Teaching with Comics

Peter Carlson (Green Dot Public Schools) and Susan Kirtley (Portland State University) lead this hands-on workshop designed for educators looking to integrate comics into classrooms. This workshop guides participants through activities that model how to develop superhero readers and writers in classrooms through the implementation of a critical comics pedagogy and includes the incredible voices of Ebony Flowers (Hot Comb), David F. Walker (Solid Comix), Chanti Burnette (Animo South Los Angeles High School), and Samantha Diego (UCLA). Workshop materials will be provided and everyone is welcome. San Diego Central Library, 4-6 p.m.
