Heroes and villains will be decked out side by side as the 2017 Cosplay Con and Anime Expo turns Verizon Arena in North Little Rock into a colorful panoply of all things comic books, anime and video games.

Starting Saturday at 11 a.m., superfans dressed like their favorite superheroes — and even a few evildoers — will stroll the arena floor in a celebration of comic books, movies and pop culture. Also on hand will be writers, artists and creators of all types.

Tickets are $25 for adults and $10 for children 12 and under.
