If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve been to at least one Comic Con. New York Comic Con will always be one of the best weekends of the year for me. It’s a sight you must see with your own eyes. It’s crowded, stinky (I saw a grown man deficate his pants last year), over-priced, but absolutely magical. There is truly nothing like it.
Supercon tells the story of former TV actor Keith Mahar (Russell Peters). The former child star and his friends – voice-over actor Matt (Ryan Kwanten), comic book artist Allison (Maggie Grace) and 80’s TV star Brock (Brooks Brasselman). Keith’s former co-star – Adam King (Clancy Brown) decides to ban this group from the convention, which sparks a plot for revenge.
Check out the trailer below:

Here’s the official synopsis:
Its another weekend, another comic convention for former TV actor Keith Mahar (Peters). Most people don’t recognize Keith. His only claim to fame was as a child star in an 80’s television show. Keith reluctantly joins his close friends, cartoon voice-over actor Matt (Kwanten) comic book artist Allison (Grace) and 80’sTV star Brock (Braselman), who are also working the convention, but things take a turn for the worst when Keith’s former co-star and Supercon’s big ticket draw for the weekend — Adam King (Brown) — decides to have this group fired and banned from the convention with the help of the convention promoter. This launches the friends on a crusade to bring down King and the promoter in the most epic way imaginable.
Supercon hits VOD and Digital HD on April 27th
