Prepare For Armageddon!!!

Australia's taking its first steps into the world of pop culture with the coming of Melbourne's first fantasy and gaming event: the Armageddon Expo. The Armageddon Expo is showcasing all things 'pop culture' from video games, cartoons, comics, anime, wrestling and so on with some crazy stuff chucked in like a Dominoes pizza eating competition and pillow fights! Goddamn, there'll even be a Mattel toy sale there!!!

In addition to the line up events, a couple of pop culture celebrities will also be making an entrance. Adam West (the original Batman) will be there, along with Billy West (the voice behind Fry and Zoidberg from Futurama), Chris Rankin (who plays Percy Weasley from the Harry Potter films) and a couple of others.

The expo is being held in Melbourne at Exhibition Hall in Southbank just opposite Crown Casinos on the weekend of October the 13th and 14th. Single day passes and 2 day passes for this event can be bought from Ticketmaster. Single day pass costs $10 for a child and $16 for an adult, and 2 day passes can be had for $17 and $28 for children and adults respectively.
