Sixth Doctor actor Colin Baker will be coming to Kansas this August, being one of the many guests at Kansas City Comic-Con between August 7 and 9.

Baker, who starred as the Doctor between 1984 and 1986 will be joined at the event by stars of media, gaming, comics, cosplay and much more!

Kansas City Comic-Con 2015 will the inaugural such event and the staff have laid the thanks at the city of Kansas, proclaiming that the community has been of huge support in realising the event:

“When Kansas City Comic Con was first conceived, it was viewed as an opportunity for a small group of like-minded individuals to create and run the kind of show we had always wanted to attend. However, soon after our initial announcement, we realized we weren’t the only ones with high hopes for our new venture. In spite of being presented with very few details, the community has taken great interest in our show and rallied around our cause in a way we never could have anticipated. For that, we thank you, but your response has only served to illustrate the challenge that lies ahead of us: to not only create a great convention but a great Kansas City convention that celebrates all of the unique things our city has to offer.”

And they say that their goal is nothing less than creating a love letter to the great city of Kansas:

“Our ultimate goal with Kansas City Comic Con is to create a love letter to the city that has lent us its name, as well as the many fans and creators who have seen fit to put their faith in us. By hook or by crook, we will make good on that promise.”

Kansas City Comic Con will be held at Bartle Hall in Kansas between August 7 and 9 2015 with tickets available now starting at $25 for a single day pass. Please visiting the Con’s official website for more details at: http://www.kansascity-comiccon.com
