I couldn’t reserve George Takei either because of Ghostbusters. I sent them a DM but they haven’t gotten back to me yet.

I had the same issue with the George Takei/Ghostbusters conflict yesterday and then the George Takei error message this morning. Finally, mid-afternoon, I went back in and I was able to reserve a spot for George. So, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login and You are not allowed to view links.

I'm pretty intrigued by that, as well. If it was legit and is now "sold out," it will be interesting to see how they finally do announce it. "Hey, we have a new panel, but you can all ignore this announcement because you can't get into it unless you happened to reserve a spot before we even made this announcement!"

Do you remember how in 2019 when the panel lotteries opened there was an unannounced panel for 20th century Fox, but then that got taken off, only to be formally announced right before the con and they did no lottery for it?  I’m thinking The Boys panel is a similar situation.

I didn't know that. Interesting! I'll be curious to see how they will handle things if there are any other Main Stage or Empire Stage panels added in the next week.

I mean the reservation system is still open.  Probably just a matter of announcing that reservations for a panel will go live at a certain time.  And hope the system doesn’t crash.

The sandman panel wasn't in the reservation system on Monday or even Tuesday morning but then they added it, so it is possible they add it later.

that said it is an amazon panel so likely a virtual panel anyway which still tempers my thoughts on if it is worth going crazy over to get into

Well, some of the actors in the Boys have been doing in person cons, so an in person panel is not completely impossible.

It didn't say virtual, however, I am inclined to agree it would be.  I think if the cast members were going to be there on their own they would be most likely be signed up to do photo ops and autographs like the expanse actors.

So Superfan members got an email today with an invite to buy photos/autos for newly added quests.  They haven't been announced yet, but there are 4 actors from The Boys being announced, a couple from Battlestar, Matthew Wood, and Kate Mulgrew.  So it looks like that Boys panel is happening, since they're all listed as being there on Friday.
