Wondercon Roundup! All The Autograph Signings This Year Are Online Lotteries! Is This What We Can Expect From SDCC?

Times, they are a changing…

It looks like CCI is going ahead with their plans to have all the signings at Wondercon online only. Which means San Diego Comic Con is poised to follow suit shortly.

Personally, I know some people who would think that this is great, no more lines. But what it really means is, that your chance for a signing is now like finding a proverbial needle in a haystack.

Wondercon may not be a big deal, but when it comes to SDCC… It’s going to be nearly impossible to get anything.

I’ve had a debate today with someone who said, “But now it’s totally fair.” Well… No. I think fair is having the ability for a fighting chance. If all someone wants all weekend is the Wonder Woman signing for instance, then they had a good chance to camp out and get it. Now? Nadda.

If fans are willing to put the time into the signings then they should get a chance to have a crack at it. As it stands for SDCC you’ll be lucky to get Teen Titans Go… on Thursday because you’ll be competing with 150,000 people as opposed to maybe 4,000 people.

Thoughts anyone? Has SDCC jumped the shark?
