www.ozcomiccon.comOn Saturday March 9 and Sunday March 10, the city of Perth will play host to the 2013 debut of Oz Comic-Con, with none-other than legendary actor and Captain of the Enterprise, William Shatner headlining the two-day event. Shatner, best known for his iconic role as Captain James T. Kirk in Star Trek, will join an array of international and local guests for the two-day Oz Comic-Con Perth event, before trekking to Oz Comic-Con Adelaide the following weekend, March 16th and 17th 2013.
Oz Comic-Con, which made its inaugural debut in 2012 to record-breaking crowds in Adelaide and Melbourne, is a pop culture expo like no other in Australia. Drawing numbers as big as 35,000 in its first year – the 2013 tour, which will include a return visit to Melbourne next July, is set to have Australia’s underground subcultures, geeks, and pop culture enthusiasts travelling from far and wide to make the convention.
William Shatner will be joined by other much-loved guests in Perth and Adelaide; including actors Jason Momoa (Game of Thrones, Stargate Atlantis and Conan) and Richard Dean Anderson (Stargate SG-1, Macgyver) – alongside a growing list of international and local film, TV, animation, illustration and voice over stars.
“We are thrilled to add Perth to the Oz Comic-Con lineup and excited for what our second year will bring. We have a wonderful selection of guests and without a doubt, there will be something for everyone. We are still adding to the line up of visiting talent and trust me on this one, Aussie fans are in for some real treats!” said Carissa Avenhouse, of Oz Comic-Con organisers DCA Enterprises.
