Calling all comic book heroes. Something wicked this way comes.

The Wicked Comic Con takes over the Westin Boston Seaport on April 9. The general exhibition hall offers 20,000 square feet for mingling with fellow fans as you meet professional all-star DC and Marvel comic book creators (the ones who keep you flipping the pages of your favorites from DC, Marvel, Dark Horse, Image, Valiant, and more), comic book art dealers, and collectible sellers of comic books, toys, cards, games, posters, and apparel.

To get into the spirit, check out The Cos-Way, an area dedicated to all things cosplay — special cosplay guests, vendors, groups, photographers, a photo-op area, and registration to get in the game (if you’re over 13 years old) by entering the Costume Competition and Cosplay Catwalk.

Besides roaming this massive hall and showing off your alter-ego, your general admission ticket also gives you access to Artist Alley, where you can get the jump on purchasing local up-and-coming comic book creators’ works (before they become priceless). There’s also the Boston Comic Art Show, with collectibles from art dealers including Nostalgic Investments, Panel Page Art, Albert Moy, Kwan Chang Art, Will’s Comic Art Page, and Essential Sequential, along with special guest The Jack Kirby Museum.

Tickets can be purchased here.
