Benedict Cumberbatch Chills With a Penguin at Comic-Con

While Comic-Con fans in San Diego have been ogling at the suit that Ben Affleck wore as Batman, fans of Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch (nicknamed “Cumberbitches”) may be more interested in this hilarious photo of the actor with a penguin mascot for The Penguins of Madagascar.

As the Associated Press points out, his appearance at a Dreamworks Animation panel marked two firsts for the actor: his first time at the convention and his first animated part.
