Last year, L.A. Comic Con welcomed 126,000 guests to attend more than 250 panel discussions and meet more than 800 artists, exhibitors and dozens of celebrity guests, so expect more of the same this year. Don your best cosplay gear and shop for collectibles and cool stuff, attend screenings or participate in gaming tournaments and cosplay contests. An impressive guest lineup this year includes Matt Smith, Rainn Wilson, Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Dominic Monaghan, Billy Boyd, Bonnie Wright, and James and Oliver Phelps.
