Founder of San Diego Comic-Con dies at 76
Sideshow was saddened to hear about the passing of Comic-Con founder, Sheldon Dorf. Greg Anzalone, CEO of Sideshow Collectibles, says of Sheldon, "Sheldon Dorf was an inspired visionary.

There are many who remain in his debt, myself and Sideshow included." Read the full story through the following link. [Read More]
