Oz Comic Con

Yes, staying in Brisbane, not a lot of our friends who have been on the radio enjoy the Comic Con.

And the Oz Comic Con has returned today to the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.

It starts at 9.30, goes through until 4.30.

So this year's guest line-up includes the Lord of the Rings star Miranda Otto.

We have 40,000 Australian small business owners who are at risk of being pushed below the poverty line under the Albanese government because they cannot kick their spending addiction and they continue to increase taxes specifically hitting and targeting small business.

Around 30,000 Australians are gathering for the Oz Comic Con this weekend.

The pop culture convention, which takes place annually in cities across Australia, is a celebration of comics, anime, film and video games.

Along with the classic colourful cosplay, where fans dress up as their favourite characters, this year's event in Sydney has sparked conversations around respect and community.

57, yeah.

So if you are familiar with traveling out to the showgrounds for events, say like Supernova and Oz Comic Con, it's the same thing.

You're just getting off a couple of stops earlier.

There's plenty of parking around there.

that's the reason I asked is because kind of not breaking news, but you're hearing it here first publicly.

I'll be hosting a Superman throughout the years, the best of Superman panel at Oz Comic Con on the... 12th of september the saturday at 4 p.m for a 45-minute panel i've done it before but it has been in the past me with a slideshow just kind of talking to the audience talking at the audience about you know the superman decade by decade and kind of you know going through it but i wanted to make this one more interactive and i want to throw to the audience more and i want to get their takes their hot takes on certain things and uh kind of try to drive a little bit of lively debate it is only 45 minutes so to go through 88 years of history in 45 minutes you're trying to like go like two minutes per year almost you know so it's like it's it's pretty hard actually no half a minute per year uh so yeah i was about to say yeah my math it's almost like math is never good

yeah what i had to do uh I don't know how you do it, but what I had to do is I split it up into eras and kind of did a certain amount of time per era instead of, cause you're right.

It's it's at that point it was 80.

But yeah, I'm looking forward to that.

I've been prepping it.

I might have a giveaway next Monday night for any Australian fans who want to go to Oz Comic Con here in Sydney.

I've got a free ticket for the whole weekend to give away, but I'll be working out the details for that and doing that next Monday night here, or Tuesday if you're in Sydney with me, on the show.

The winner is Sydney.
