Marvel has kept its fans guessing as to what the future of their cinematic universe will hold and Saturday San Diego Comic-Con attendees willing to wait in Hall H's long lines will likely find out.
Even with limited information, the mystery Marvel Studios panel has been the most anticipated event of SDCC 2019 since the full schedule was released two weeks ago.
