To be expected, San Diego Comic Con 2014 will probably be the biggest entertainment gathering of the year, and possibly the biggest Comic Con of all time. Showtime’s literary horror mash-up Penny Dreadful, will debut at the annual event for the first time.

Penny Dreadful fans will have a chance to pick up some sweet show merchandise at SDCC. Not only are the Con lanyards branded with Showtime and Penny Dreadful, but they’re also selling Titan Books’ tie-in versions of the classic horror source material – Dracula, Frankenstein and A Picture of Dorian Gray, all of which contain original black and white illustrations by Martin Stiff, Louie De Martinis and Ian Bass.
