Adult Swim will have a big presence at the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con, bringing in talent including Mike Tyson, Seth Green, Dan Harmon, Justin Roiland, Dave Willis, Rob Corddry, Rob Huebel, Breckin Meyer, and Casper Kelly, and participating in Q&As with fans as well as autograph signings and other events during the sold-out convention. The shows that will represented are Robot Chicken, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever, Childrens Hospital, Mike Tyson Mysteries, Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell, and Rick and Morty, and the network’s setting up a special Adult Swim On The Green experience behind the San Diego Convention Center that will be up and running throughout the duration of Comic-Con.
Here are the details on Adult Swim’s planned Comic-Con events, per the network:
While inside the convention center, fans can stop by the Adult Swim Booth (#3721), but make sure you stretch first! Get limbered up and come lob fishy fun sacks into our illuminated cat holes at the Feline Fun Hole Slide Mouth. Steady your trembling paws, and pray your sacrifice to our great glowing kitty doesn’t go unnoticed. If your aim is true she may cough up something beautiful and exciting.
Need some fresh air? Visit Adult Swim On The Green, located behind the convention center at Convention Way and 5th Ave Pier, Thursday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. and Sunday from 9:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. A brand new experience for fans, Adult Swim activities will include the Carnival Midway, free nightly screenings, Rick and Morty spaceship sighting, and the Meatwad Full Dome Experience.

Carnival hours are Thursday through Saturday from 12:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. and Sunday from 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Nestled next to the Carnival will also be the quintessential return of the Meatwad Full Dome Experience, which debuted last year, and is returning for another year of intergalactic mind travel. Inside the 40-foot planetarium dome, fans will be taken on a 360-degree journey through space and time, guided by the familiar fast-food friend. The Dome will be open Thursday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. and on Sunday from 9:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
FishCenter and Toonami Pre-Flight will also be broadcasting live from inside the Meatwad Full Dome Experience.

Additionally, after the success of the Adult Swim Drive-In Screening in Los Angeles, we’re bringing fans another chance to check out what’s on the horizon for the network with free nightly screenings. Join us Thursday evening for Adult Swim Presents: Things You’ve Never/Rarely Seen for a night of specials, never-before-seen pilots, and an early look at Mike Tyson Mysteries, The Venture Bros., Squidbillies, and more. On Friday, we’re bringing you a preview of Rick and Morty season two and a live episode with show creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland.
Saturday will be filled with unaired episodes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever and Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell along with a chance for fans to publicly mourn the end of Aqua Teen. Be sure to drop by with a blanket and cuddle up with Adult Swim on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights from 8:30 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.
Last, but certainly not least, Rick and Morty crash land their spaceship at Comic-Con this year. Fans are invited to ogle and gawk at the crash site, as well as take photos to share with friends.
