COLOURFUL characters of all kinds descended on Newport at the weekend for Comic Con Wales.

The two-day event was hosted on Saturday, August 6, and Sunday, August 7, with people donning their favourite cosplay costumes flocking to meet artists and stars – including John Cena (Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad).

Other stars at Comic Con Wales included:

  • Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch);
  • James Marsters (Buffy the Vampire Slayer);
  • Steven Ogg and Chandler Riggs (The Walking Dead);
  • Actors from Cobra Kai, Gotham, Teen Wolf, Suits, and more.

We've already featured two collections of pictures from the event:

But there were so many we couldn't event fit them into two articles, so here are even more.
