The news may be rolling out for San Diego's next convention, but for those on the east coast, the lineup of guests coming to New York Comic Con 2019 is the real attraction. And now the actors, writers, and artists attending the show have been confirmed.

This year New York Comic Con will run from October 3rd to 6th, with the list of guests already growing by the day.
