The annual Supanova Comic Con & Gaming expo heads to Sydney and Perth next month. Just when you thought you knew about all of the special appearances, the expo has secured even more ahead of the highly anticipated multi-day events.

Supanova will return to Sydney on Saturday, 21 and Sunday, 22 June, and head to Perth the following weekend on Saturday, 28 and Sunday, 29 June.

Marvel star Evangeline Lilly will make her Supanova debut next month. With huge starring roles in Ant-Man and The Avengers: Endgame, she’ll appear at the event for the first time in Sydney before heading west to Perth.

Lilly is far from the only star secured for this year’s last convention events. Bryce Papenbrook will appear exclusively in Perth. Recognised as one of the most successful names in anime, he’s been behind the voice of Eren Yeager in Attack On Titan and Inosuke in Demon Slayer, among others.

The convention also welcomes Powerless author Lauren Roberts (Sydney and Perth), who will host a special after-hours event, A Supanova Evening with Lauren Roberts, in Sydney. The Medoran Chronicles author Lynette Noni will head to Supanova alongside actor and author Luke Arnold, Alan Baxter, Madeline Te Whiu, Juliet Marillier, and another Supanova debutant, The Wytchling Chronicles author C.C. Davie.

In addition to actors and authors, Supanova has ensured that comic book fans are represented, securing the brains behind Neverlander, Jon Sommariva and Tom Taylor, Venom’s David Yardin, and more.
