London Film and Comic-con 2010 [Article and Pics]

“LFCC takes place every summer at Earls Court 2 in London. Celebrating the best of film, television, comics and sport, London Film and Comic Con is a day out unlike any other, giving you the chance to meet your idols, ask them questions and have your photograph taken with them as well as grabbing the latest film/tv/comic merchandise on the market.”

Badger and William cheese off for a photo shoot.

“This year the event had some big names with William Shatner and Mike Tyson in attendance amongst many others including a 30th Anniversary reunion of some of the actors from ‘Empire Strikes Back’. There was the Cosplay where many visitors dressed up as their favourite film, tv or comic book idol, or people simply marveled at the many costumes that were on display in the Cosplay Zone.”

The Awesome sight that is the Tumbler Batmobile.

“There were plenty of talented artists demonstrating their skills in Artists Ally, as well as the DC Comics 75th Anniversary Covers Exhibition. The Tumbler Batmobile was on show proving an instant hit with visitors as they entered the hall, and plenty of dealers selling a wide range of merchandise, comics, film props and more!” – www.londonfilmandcomiccon.com

Robot VS Badger came along and this is what we saw.

The Show and the Costumes

This Guy was awesome, lingering outside scaring the bejesus out of unsuspecting patrons.

As to be expected the Star Wars fans pulled out the big guns when it came to the cosplay.

The two bats to match the car and an awesome fan tattoo that we spotted walking around.

There were so many good costumes going around, ranging from The Invisible man to Freddy krueger.

In fact there where so many cosplayer’s it was hard to keep track of “who was who”.
