SUPERNATURAL Comic-Con 2014 Bag
The Winchester boys are back at Comic-Con, on a panel as well as really, really large bags.

Warner Bros. TV annually rolls out a slew of big bags that double as backpacks for attendees of the event — storage for all the comic books and other stuff people buy at the San Diego Convention Center July 23-27 — and Supernatural actors Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki star on one of 13 fan-friendly bag designs. (It is a show about fighting demons, after all, so there's also some salt, fire and other things needed for monster hunting.)

More than 130,000 bags are slated to be handed out featuring art and photos from the TV shows Arrow, Constantine, The Flash, The Following, Gotham, iZOMBIE, The Originals, The Vampire Diaries, Mike Tyson Mysteries and Teen Titans Go! Batman's turning 75 so he gets a pair of designs, one styled after the old 1960s TV series.

Also of note: Yours truly will be moderating the Supernatural Comic-Con panel on July 27, and Jensen and Padalecki will be on hand to talk about the long-running show's 10th season — and upcoming 200th episode — alongside Misha Collins, new series regular Mark Sheppard and executive producer Jeremy Carver. The crowd at the 6,500-seat Hall H room will also get to see series highlights and bonus features from the upcoming Season 9 Blu-ray and DVD (out Sept. 9).
