Metro Parent Hosts Kids Comic Con

Event keeps hero play kid-friendly.

Kids can get their superhero on this Saturday at Metro Parent Magazine’s Kids Comic Con.

The Kids Comic Con will take place throughout Orchard Lake Mall in West Bloomfield Township.

Leslie Gora is the event coordinator for Metro Parent. She said adult comic events are often too “racy” for kids.

“And so we just thought why not do our own event,” Gora said. “Where kids can dress up and we’ll have characters there who are not dressed up in any racy outfits for them to meet.”

Kids can come dressed as their favorite superheroes. There will be crafts and entertainment.

Metro Parent hopes to make the Kids Comic Con an annual event.
