At MCM Comic Con, attendees can immerse themselves in a vibrant and diverse environment filled with exhibitions, panels, screenings and interactive experiences. Exhibition halls are filled with booths and stands featuring merchandise, collectibles, artwork, comic books and memorabilia from popular franchises.

Fans also won't want to miss lots of fun happening at the CGC booth all weekend long! In addition to our popular pin giveaway, we will have the limited-edition 2024 pins to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Wolverine and the 85th anniversary of Batman.
