What a crazy week at San Diego Comic-Con! This was my fifth time, and there were more fans, more creators, more actors there than I’ve ever seen before. If you didn’t get to go, or you spent all your time waiting in lines, I’ve assembled a few of the biggest announcements at the con:

*Sterling Gates will write Kid Flash as a new ongoing series, in addition to Supergirl and the World’s Finest miniseries. Look for Kid Flash to start up next year, and it will tie into Geoff Johns’ new run on Flash.

*Geoff Johns will be writing an episode of Smallville, featuring the JSA.

*Marvel gained the rights to Marvelman/Miracleman. The 1980s series by Alan Moore has been long out-of-print and hard to find.

*The creators of TV’s Lost said the final season will in a lot of ways mirror the first season, and will see the return of some favorite characters including … Charlie?

*James Robinson’s talked about a new lineup in JLA: Mon-El, Congorilla, Dick Grayson Batman, Donna Troy and Hal Jordan. The other characters are a “mystery,” says Robinson. And Mon-El’s new costume was revealed.

* Oni announced a new comic from Rashida Jones of “The Office” and “Parks and Recreation” about an heiress who becomes a CIA agent: Frenemy of the State.
