All-star lineups at fan conventions are super fun.
A couple of weekends ago, Karen Gillan, Jenna Coleman, and John Barrowman all appeared at Boston Comic Con. Below we will discuss a couple of other epic Doctor Who lineups scheduled for the relatively near future.
According to an article by Nicole Massabrook of the International Business Times, ReedPop recently announced that Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie will be making their New York Comic Con debut in October. This will be Mackie’s first appearance at any convention, ever. The co-stars will be on the Doctor Who panel at Madison Square Garden on Friday the 7th, along with Steven Moffat and Brian Minchin. Also at the con to sign autographs on both Thursday and Friday will be Jenna Coleman, Karen Gillan, and Matt Smith.
