Jawas, Mandalorians and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were all in attendance as Comic Con 2024 came to Leeds.

Hundreds dressed as all manner of comic book, film and TV characters descended on the First Direct Arena today (Sunday) for Comic Con 2024.

The event included cosplay, console gaming, anime, Manga, prop and set recreations, board gaming, card trading stands and comics.

There was also opportunities to meet and greet actor Brian Blessed, who was the event’s special guest.
