At the convention, Sideshow then displayed the figure on the convention floor.

Not only did attendees get a poster of a <a href=\"http:\/\/i62.tinypic.com\/2ib00lt.jpg\">map of the DC Multiverse<\/a>, but Grant made it himself (designed by<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsarama.com\/21694-sdcc-2014-grant-morrison-maps-the-dc-multiverse-ahead-of-multiversity.html\"> Rian Hughes<\/a>). <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1rU7F00\">Morrison talked about Green Lanterns Abin Sur &amp; Kyle Rayner<\/a> who will be featured in the series (on different Earths).
