Title: Wales Comic Con 2011
Post by: walescomiccon on 07 March, 2011, 02:01:27 PM
Greetings everyone! I wanted to let you all know about our upcoming show this Summer which lands on Sunday June 5th  :)

Hope you like it and for those who have been before (and of course for those who haven't) we've got more giveaways from the likes of; Games Workshop, Blizzard INC (World of Warcraft anyone?), ODEON as well as an exclusive print for the show from colourist - Liam Shalloo  :D

We started this show back in 2008 as fans wanting a more local show rather than the vast amount dotted around the country each and every weekend...

Also you can meet Spencer Wilding for the first time since his work on the Green Lantern movie as Kilowog and also ask him about his future role in the new Ghost Rider movie being filmed now!

Oh and to add to the mix we've got some of the crew from Red Dwarf, members of Torchwood and a Thundercat to join in the fun as well.

www.walescomiccon.com for all the details and YES the talks are FREE!

Thanks for reading,

Jaime & the Mercury Promotions team

Is it me or is this event misnamed? I see computer games, films and tv and one mention of a comic colourist.

OK for everyone we also have our good friend Neil Edwards returning for his THIRD appearance with us at the show! Simon Furman and Andrew Wildman will be making the trip to Wales together for the first time this year and sharing stories with you all.

Previously mentioned colourist Liam Shalloo will be there for both comic fans and the gamers out there.

Up and coming acclaimed UK comic artist who brings us Norton Mouse - Mr David Hill is attending his first show in Wales (Norton has gathered some great internet momentum from the likes of Jonathan Ross and Lisa Faulkner)!

We also have Mike Collins and writer James Moran confirmed for their Comic Con debuts and there is still more to come!!  :D

UK publishers Murky Depths will be making a welcome return to the event after their success at last years show.

Hot off the press from his work on Kick-Ass - UK life sculptor and artist Mr John Schoonraad will be making his first ever signing worldwide at the show  ;)

If your also into films, games and other cool stuff (which I'm sure you all are) theres alot of that going on at the show as well  :lol:

Enjoy!

It might help if you said where in Wales this is being held, i.e. Wrexham.
