65 000 fans can’t be wrong
Montreal ComicCon 2024 was held on July 5 to the 7th at the Montreal Palais des Congrès, and the fans responded in throve, as over 65 000 crossed the turnstiles during the weekend to take part in the event.
Before the opening
Members of the media were invited to take part in a press conference prior to the opening, females actress from the movie franchise A Nightmare on Elm Street, Amanda Wyss, Lisa Wilcox, Ronee Blakley and Heather Langenkamp were present for the occasion. These ladies were joined by Melinda Clark from the O.C television series and Veronica Taylor the voice of Ask Ketchum from the animé Pokémon. And to top it all off the 3 members of the Trailer park Boys series.
So many things so little time
Montreal ComicCon 2024 offers a variety of activities, from Q&A with guest, to photoshoot, autograph signing, some will even offer the ability to do selfies with them. The market offer the possibilities to find that elusive item at normally a decent price. This year the Artist alley was larger than ever and for the occasion the artist Mark Brooks created a cover for Marvel Deadpool #4, which reminded the fans of Disney The Lion King. A it is now often the case, you could purchase the regular retail variant or the Virgin variant. If you missed your chance on getting one of them, no worries resellers are already offering them on eBay, at a steeper price point of course. But that was not all You could try upcoming video games from indies studios, in the Loto-Quebec section, try your hand a figurine painting or take part of a quest in a D&D RPG session.
What’s in it for next year?
I quickly asked Cliff Caporale the program director that same question, and the answer was.
Cliff Caporale: With the Ottawa ComicCon, Winnipeg ComicCon and the Ottawa Animé, I have too many things at the moment to plan to even think about next year
Knowing Cliff and his love of the Pop Culture, the 15th edition of the Montreal ComicCon is sure to blow the fans minds. Here are a few images that I captured over the weekend.
