For the third consecutive year, Toyota headlines a list of sponsors ushering in the 27th anniversary of Michigan’s top comic/popular culture event. More than 50,000 visitors are expected to attend this year’s Comic Con.

The convention features numerous activities for fans of comic books, science fiction and movie and television entertainment. Daily activities include: costume contests, panel discussions, opportunities to meet an array of TV and movie actors and visit with some of the top comic book artists in the country. Motor City Comic Con also features several aisles of merchandise vendors, selling everything from rare comics to unique apparel.

“We are absolutely thrilled to be returning to Motor City Comic Con this year,” said Curt McAllister, Midwest Public Relations Manager for

Toyota Motor North America. “This convention has the reputation of being one of the best events of its kind in the United States. Metro Detroit has also become a destination of sorts for comic and super hero fans, due in part to the success of ‘Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice’ and the movie’s various local filming locations.”
