MCM London Comic Con

A firm fixture on every fanboy’s calendar, MCM Comic Con is the UK’s biggest modern pop culture convention. October’s three-day iteration is as fantastically culty as ever: play in retro arcades, have a go at new tabletop games and the prospect of meet-and-greets with some bona fide cult icons including Michael Sheen, Tom Sturridge, Andy Serkiss, Jessica Raine, Tom Welling and Sydney Mikayla.

There will also be a ‘Pop Asia’ area with origami classes, manga drawing and sumo wrestling demos, plus live performances from leading K-pop artists. Elsewhere, expect the usual heady mix of cosplay, merch stalls and gaming zones. Find out more on the MCM Comic Con website.
