The pop-culture mecca returns for its sixth year in early July
Oz Comic-Con returns for its sixth go-around in Melbourne this July, and organisers are assuring it takes shape with its best foot forward by announcing its first three guests today.
Fans of seminal cult TV show Twin Peaks will be eager to get in line for this one, as Oz Comic-Con will welcome to its ranks series favourite Sherilyn Fenn — aka Audrey Horne — also known for her work on shows such as Shameless, Gilmore Girls and Rude Awakening, not to mention film roles in titles including Of Mice & Men and Fatal Instinct.
She'll be flanked by two stars of current CW hit iZombie in Aly Michalka (Peyton) and Rahul Kohli (the too-dreamy-for-words Ravi), who have served as faithful offsiders to central character and titular zombie Liv (Rose McIver) in her crime-fighting pursuits over the past two seasons. With season three freshly under way (and available to stream locally on Stan), fans will have a raft of new episodes to devour in the run-up to their chance to meet the cast members.
Michalka, Kohli and Fenn will all take part in professional photograph and autograph opportunities across the weekend, as well as featuring on Q&A panels.

The broader convention will be stacked with heaps to keep fans busy and stoked all weekend long, including cosplay, anime and gaming areas, family-friendly activities, workshops, retail and, pretty dang excitingly, exclusive Marvel and Star Wars content to lord over their mates who couldn't — or, worse, chose not to — get a ticket.
For those of you who know better than to let these sorts of things just pass you by, Oz Comic-Con Melbourne will be held at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 July.
Tickets are available now; see the event's website for more information.
