If you’re a fan of everything from video games and sci-fi films to comics, cosplay or anime, make sure you make a note of it in your diary. The MCM Manchester Comic Con has returned! Bringing you all the excitement of the legendary MCM London Comic Con to the North West, this awesome show blasts back to Manchester Central on Saturday 20th July for a day chock-a-block with all things geeky.
