By Ryan Keating-Lambert

Original ‘Hellboy’ Ron Perlman will be one of the esteemed guests at Prague’s very first Comic-Con taking place next February, according to ČTK.

The 69-year-old actor (Yes, he really is 69!) is known best for his work on the 2004 Guillermo Del Toro film Hellboy (also filmed in Prague) and the 2008 sequel Hellboy II: The Golden Army, based on the comics by Mike Mignola.

Comic-Con, which started in the US almost 50 years ago, has since become a fan favourite among pop-culture conventions and festivals, with exhibitions on comics, books, films, television series and video games in the science fiction, fantasy and horror genres.
Prague Comic-Con will take place in O2 Universum next February 7th – 9th.
Tickets are now on sale through Ticketmaster.
