This weekend is the MCM London ComicCon and I’ve (once again) managed to score myself an invitation… which I’ll be putting to good use on both days.
With no Kapow! this year, this really is the best opportunity to experience a comic-culture show in London… if (of course) you didn’t make it to the London Super Con earlier this year.
