This is part of my ongoing coverage of San Diego Comic-Con 2019. This is the first year that there was not separate exhibit space for both Warner Bros and DC Comics. In 2019, DC Comics has been folded into the Warner Bros exhibit. This now mirrors Marvel, which has one exhibit space as Marvel Entertainment.
