Celebrities, cosplayers, gamers, animators and comic artists gathered under one roof at the NEC in Birmingham last weekend.

Thousands attended the show, which included TV and film stars, independent creators and the best in UK cosplay.

Gusher reader Noo Jarvill said: "My 14-year-old son went for the first time today as a birthday present.

"He made his own Stormtrooper costume from foam floor tiles. He was so excited to be there and have people ask for his autograph."

Here's a selection of Daventry Express' readers' pictures.
