The last piece of the puzzle has been released and we now have the complete schedule for San Diego Comic-Con. Now that Sunday is out of the bag, planning can really begin and we cans tart figuring out what we can and can’t see.  Like the previous days, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Sunday brings more stuff for us to want to see and be envious of those who will get to see it. Oh well, the trick is just to have fun, so we will.

Some of the highlights of Sunday include the Smallville screening and Q&A, the Castle panel, the women of Marvel panel, panels from Archaia comics and Wildstorm, the DC Town Hall, the FX panel featuring Sons of Anarchy, the Glee panel and a whole lot more. Sunday is also kid’s day so look for lots of programming and events geared to the Con’s younger attendees.
