Nickelodeon is headed to Comic-Con International: San Diego next month and will host a 1,800 square-foot booth on the convention floor filled with "one-of-a-kind virtual and real-world experiences" for a number of its popular franchises. This includes Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the re-imagined series that follows our beloved Heroes in a Half Shell; the upcoming INVADER ZIM original TV movie; the return of the iconic game show Double Dare (which premiered last night); the animated series The Loud House; and the iconic dinosaur Reptar from Rugrats.

The Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Live virtual reality experience will give fans a chance to interact and have a conversation with Michelangelo and Donatello - voiced live on scene by  Brandon Mychal Smith and Josh Brener - in a virtual representation of New York City. This experience was created by Nickelodeon's Entertainment Lab which spearheads the network's development efforts around new technologies for Nickelodeon and its audience.



Additionally, there will be a Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles panel on Thursday, July 19, followed by an INVADER ZIM panel on Friday, July 20. Here are the details:
