Just weeks away from the event itself, the Malta Comic Con team have released this impressive trailer to give comic fans a taster of the highly-regarded event, created by Mark A. Tagliaferro and Nitedevil Darkwatch.
Now in its sixth year, this line up offers an impressive line up of guests including a huge number of British comic creators such as leading independent comics creator Sean Azzopardi, Judge Dredd writer Emma Beeby, Doctor Who artist Mike Collins, publisher and educator Tim Perkins, 2000AD writer Gordon Rennie, Beano and VIZ cartoonist Lew Stringer, Doctor Who and Judge Dredd artist Dave Taylor, Marvel cover artist Christian Ward, and designer and Transformers artist Andrew Wildman.
The British contingent joins a massive line up of comic creators from both Malta, Europe and the United States for the convention, which takes place 29th – 30th November 2014.
The travel package being offered to comic fans to go to the event, which includes accommodation in a four star hotel Bugibba, is actually less than what it might cost some to attend a comic convention in London or another major British city… so, what are you waiting for?
