Birmingham's number one alternative convention, Not Another Comic-Con, is returning to the city for a day-long celebration of pop culture from TV, comics and cosplay.

Special guests for the day will include actors Adrian Bouchet from The Last Kingdom, Andy Beckwith from Snatch, Game of Thrones and Pirates of the Caribbean, and Emma Vieceli from Marvel and Titan comics.

The convention returns after huge success in its debut in 2017, and staff are expecting it to be the biggest event so far with around 1,200 people in attendance.

The event will involve a graffiti art festival with all custom works of art being donated to a charity raffle to help raise funds for Birmingham Children's Hospital, as well as the much loved 'Drink and Draw' event.

In the run up to the convention there will also be events such as the much anticipated Rick and Morty quiz at the Gosta Green pub on April 28, and a showing of Batman 66 at Millennium Point on April 19.

The convention will be hosted at Aston University on August 3.
