Comics

An exciting event celebrating comics in all their forms.

Get Passes

Animex celebrates its love of comics with a day of talks and signings by writers and artists from the likes of Marvel and Image with some industry legends thrown in for good measure. There are only 280 tickets available and we expect this event to sell out very quickly! Animex Comics, Indie and Workshops run concurrently, therefore you will only be able to attend one of these events
