HBO's Game of Thrones is usually filled with blood and gore, but at Comic-Con in San Diego, it’ll be packed with jokes and musical numbers.

Game of Thrones: The Musical - A Song of Nice Satire includes 12 original songs about your favorite Starks, Lannisters, and other Westeros inhabitants. Be prepared for tons of spoilers and moments like this from Film School Rejects' review of the the musical that premiered in Los Angeles earlier this year: "A stark-white Arya raps to what sounds like old school nineties beats while sporting a hipster crop top."

We'll see what the Many-Faced God thinks about that.

A Mercury News review in February said, "If you’re a theater geek and a Game of Thrones devotee, we’ve just found your Super Bowl."

Add that to the peak fandom found at Comic-Con and Throne fanatics will be in high heaven -- or at least sitting on their own iron throne.

Eight shows will run July 20-23 in San Diego during Comic-Con.
