Dallas Comic Show

Dallas Comic Show is a family-friendly event with comic book creators, celebs, cosplay, Anime and more for pop culture fans around the DFW area.

is an affordable and accessible alternative to the larger costly "Comic Con" events, with a strong focus on comics and fan interaction - a family-friendly event in the DFW area featuring exciting comic book and media guests, costumed characters, gaming and Anime content. With multiple sjows each year, this is a great pop culture experience for the whole family. This convention was put together by Mark Walters, who ran the Dallas Comic & Toy Fest (aka "Dallas Comic Show") from 2000 to 2002, and managed the "Dallas Comic Con" events from 2002 to 2014 until that brand was sold by the owners. Our mission with DALLAS COMIC SHOW is to bring back an affordable pop culture convention experience to the DFW area, something everyone can enjoy and embrace without breaking the bank. This is show run by fans and done for fans. We are here to make sure you have fun. Our inaugural shows were held at the Richardson Convention Center - in the Spring of 2016 (April 23-24) and in late Summer 2016 (August 6-7). Our third event was at the Irving Convention Center on February 11-12, 2017, and our fourth back at the Richardson Civic Center on September 16-17, 2017. In 2018 we had two fun events happening, August 25-26, and November 17-18. In 2019, we had three shows - the first April 6-7 in Richardson, then August 10-11 in Lewisville, TX, and finally November 23-24 in Richardson. In 2020, due to Coronavirus concerns, we decided to go on hiatus and not attempt public gatherings, which in hindsight was probably for the best. In 2021, the Dallas Comic Show returns with THREE scheduled events - the first being a single-day show on June 26, the second a two-day show August 21-22, and the third being November 6-7, and all three events will be held at the Music City Mall in Lewisville, TX. We hope to see you there!

In 2021 we lost our dear friend James Hampton, a beloved fixture at local conventions, known for his work on TEEN WOLF and TEEN WOLF TOO, F-TROOP, THE LONGEST YARD, SLING BLADE and more. To honor his memory, his lovely wife, actress/writer/producer Mary Deese Hampton (known for 9-1-1, BLOCKBUSTER, HAROLD AND KUMAR 2) is joining DALLAS COMIC SHOW's Holiday Special this November 21-22, 2026 (our 10th Anniversary!) at NTX Arena in Lewisville. She is bringing with her some pre-signed photos and copies of James' book she'll be making available to fans of Jimmy, whether you met him at past local cons, or always wished you had. Even if you just have a story to share about an experience with James or one of his performances, stop by her table and say hello!

For any vendors considering setting up with us, we are now accepting payments to lock in space for DALLAS COMIC SHOW's Holiday Special this November 21-22, 2026 (continuing our 10th Anniversary!) at NTX Arena in Lewisville. Usually we sell out early as a lot of our vendors re-up at the end of each show, so don’t delay if you’re wanting in for the next one while we have vendor spots available. These are 10x10 spaces, and we expect they’ll go FAST.

Please note, these are NOT toy show-style single tables, expect full 10x10 booth size and pricing. We also do not have any “artist” tables available at this time, though that may change closer to the event - we are only looking to pre-sell full-size 10x10 vendor booths right now.

If you’re interested (serious inquiries only, please), send an email to dallascomicshow [at] gmail [dot] com - and make sure to note what you sell, include pics of your booth, etc. - we screen all vendors for approval, and you will need to sign an exhibitor contract. Payment must be received immediately to secure a spot. We’re putting together some really fun stuff for November, find our site link on this page’s bio.
