Finally, the north of England has a Comic Con of its very own, and next weekend (July 30th) sees the inaugural McM Expo event at Manchester Central, with a veritable smorgasbord of geek-tastic content and appearances. The broadly-appealing event will include participation by major games publishers, leading film studios, top comic artists and sport stars, sci-fi collectables and prestigious cosplay competitions. Oh and we’ll be there as well.
There’s no indication as of yet as to what film-fans might get to see (aside from the special guests below), but with representation from Universal, Warner Bros, SyFy and 20th Century Fox, as well as anime distributors Mvm Entertainment, there’s bound to be enough to tantalise and entertain all tastes.
Guests so far announced offer a mix from British sci-fi, with Craig Charles of Red Dwarf and Warwick Davis (Star Wars, Willow, Harry Potter) representing the biggest names on board.
