If you thought last year’s L.A. Comic Con was big, this year’s three-day takeover of the Los Angeles Convention Center (Sept. 26–28) was even more packed. Keep reading for this year’s highlights.
Star-Studded Panels
The South Hall Main Stage stayed lit with fan-favorite panels:
Scream Reunion: Jamie Kennedy, Matthew Lillard, and Skeet Ulrich brought the slasher nostalgia, cracking jokes and spilling behind-the-scenes tea.
Doctor Who Q&A: David Tennant and Billie Piper were the ultimate duo, answering questions in a panel moderated by Tiffany Babb.
Spotlight on Krysten Ritter: The Jessica Jones star shared insights into her career, her characters, and life beyond Marvel.
Starship Troopers Panel (Sunday 9/28): Casper Van Dien, Denise Richards, Michael Ironside, Jake Busey, Dina Meyer, and Patrick Muldoon reunited for a nostalgia trip.
Return of the Living Dead Sneak Peek: Fans got the global debut of a scene from the upcoming movie, followed by a Q&A with Alexander Ward, Tony Gardner, Casimere Jollette, Devon Sawa (yes, my childhood crush—be still my 90s heart), and Steven Wolsh.

New Layout & Features
2025 was about expansion:
- Kentia Hall became the new home for Autographs and Artist Alley, finally giving fans more room while chasing signatures and rare prints.
- Carnevil Hall made its bloody debut, dedicating an entire space to horror culture—costumes, collectibles, and creepy vibes galore.
- For the first time ever, an Anime section rolled out, cementing L.A. Comic Con’s commitment to crossover fandoms and anime’s unstoppable rise.
The Vibe
More people. More cosplay. More merch. More everything. If last year felt big, this year proved L.A. Comic Con was expanding and a parking lot was charging $100 for the day. Insane!
