The organisers have joined forces with Fife-based comic artist Gary Erskine, who will be serving as the creative director for the event.

The event on June 8 takes place from 10am to 5pm and will feature more than 70 traders, cosplayers like Iron Man, Batman, Chewbacca, as well as a series of guest appearances from writers and artists at Marvel, DC, Image and 2000ad Comics. The Delorean from Back to the Future will also be parked up for those selfie opportunities.
