The countdown has started for this year's highly anticipated Comic Con in Liverpool.
Comic book lovers, sci-fi fans and cosplay enthusiasts will be able to meet their favourite celebrities once again in October as the popular event returns to the Exhibition Centre. The previous Comic Con last April was a star-studded affair, with Doctor Who’s Matt Smith and Stranger Things star Grace Van Dien in attendance.
Visitors can arrange autographs and photographs with their favourite stars. However, the event is not just about celebrities, with art stalls, merchandise and board games all available at the convention.
