**Please note that activities will be taking place throughout public areas of The Bridge - these are all open to non ticket holders. Events taking place within the auditorium are for ticket holders only**.
Presented by FUSE and Platform, join us this October for all things film and comics! See full running order below.
Explore costumes and props, browse stalls offering comics, graphic novels, stickers, keychains, potion making, crystals, artwork, jewellery, collectables and merchandise and take a walk down 'Artists Alley' which will showcase the work of national comic creators/illustrators.
There will also be talks and creative sessions for all ages and a chance for fans to show off their incredible costumes and celebrate their favourite characters - get your best comic inspired costume or apparel on and be in with a chance of winning a prize! Scottish Cartoon Studio will be providing a caricaturist - ideal for a take home memento. There will also be face painting and glitter tattoos.
Doctor Who star Peter Capaldi has donated a signed script as a raffle prize and author Chris McQueer joins us for a talk about his work. Etienne Kubwabo, a filmmaker and DJ based in Glasgow and creator of Beats of War will be part of the event alongside the fantastic Easterhouse based band Toothless Aggression who will be showcasing live music. Ghostbusters, Batman and Iron Man will be making an appearance along with various other cosplayers from the comic universe!
As well as Dungeons and Dragons roleplay/games, Dr Who Daleks and a Ghostbusters car parked up in The Bridge Car Park - plus lots more!
Enjoy a film screening of the Fantastic Four to round the event off - screening starts around 4pm.
Platform and Fuse Youth Cafe are thrilled to host the first-ever Easterhouse Comic Convention, bringing the vibrant world of comics and pop culture to the community in an accessible and affordable way with the support of the North East Area Partnership. An event not to be missed!
