Brisbane RNA Showgrounds, November 8-10 2013 • Adelaide Showground, November 15-17 2013

Welcome to the Supanova Pop Culture Expo’s November 2013 tour of Brisbane and Adelaide.

And yes, things are different already, as you’ve by now no doubt noticed as you hold this brand new version of our Event Guide, which is more like an Event Programme, and therefore an excellent keepsake in addition to being an informative guide to the expos.

Who do we have to thank for this bold new direction? Why, none other than FilmInk Magazine, who have now sponsored and supported Supanova for ten glorious years. After all, that’s the beauty of Supanova – in all the years that we’ve aspired, and succeeded, in being Australia’s version of Comic-Con, from our humble beginnings as comicfest! back in 2000 to our rebranding as Supanova in 2002, we’ve always sought to improve where we can, and cement what we get right in partnership with our sponsors, exhibitors, special guests, talented locals, wonderful volunteers, and literally over 500,000 fans as we’ve grown and grown.

After all, we at Supanova – as staff, family and friends – are exactly who you are: fans. Through destiny’s all-knowing sense of good humour, we’ve somehow joined together to create these expos, and it’s your passion and enthusiasm that continues to drive us.

With that in mind, we’d love to continue thanking the rest of our sponsors for bringing that special something to every event, but in particular, this November tour – Madman Entertainment, Domino’s Pizza, Weta Collectables, Timezone, Booktopia, Global Gear, and our wonderfully cool Adelaide sister event, AVCon. They’re worth supporting, and we wholeheartedly encourage you to keep doing so.

Lastly, aside from thanking you once again (yes, you, reading this), please don’t forget to download our Guidebook update to any smartphones or tablets that you may have. Invariably, changes occur, and the Guidebook allows us to inform you of them pretty much as they happen.

Kick off your Supanova weekend in style!

If you’re serious about Supanova, then Friday’s Opening Night is unmissable! There are exclusive movie trailers, fun and silliness with your panel hosts for the weekend, and best of all, a huge array of the most loved Supa-Star guests… you never know who will be appearing. Plus, it’s also when the biggest announcements are made about upcoming shows and events, so it’s pretty much essential that you attend!

This will be directly followed by Supanova’s charity auction, where guests will auction off all types of rare and collectible items for awesome causes.

As well as the opening ceremony, there are screenings of a handful of anticipated anime features, special masterclasses from the pros, and a host of Q&A sessions, featuring the guests of Game Of Thrones, Farscape, and more. This may be the only chance to see some Supanova guests together, and often these events are combined with group photo shoots. Check the Photo Schedule later in the programme to see if this is available in your city.

Finally, Opening Night is also a fantastic opportunity to beat the queue, and get in early for your autograph and photograph tokens for the weekend.

Once again, Supanova has mapped out its very own piece of Middle Earth, with a host of stars from The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit making the trip to Supanova.

JOHN CALLEN

(OIN IN THE HOBBIT) DOMINIC MONAGHAN As feisty hobbit, Meriadoc “Merry” Brandybuck, he helped save Middle Earth from the black-clawed clutches of Sauron in The Lord Of The Rings, and also starred as Bolt in X-Men Origins:Wolverine. On the small screen, he formed part of the dynamic ensemble in Lost, and also featured in David S. Goyer’s excellent sci-fi series, FlashForward.

DEAN O’GORMAN This young veteran of New Zealand television (Hercules, Shortland St., Go Girls, Animalia) stars as the courageous Fili in The Hobbit.

JOHN CALLEN A veteran director, voiceover artist and actor, this charismatic Kiwi stars as the dwarf, Oin, in The Hobbit.

MARK FERGUSON A TV host (New Zealand’s Big Brother) and actor (Hercules, Shortland St.), this Sydney-born performer made his presence felt in The Lord Of The Rings as the Elven-king Gil-galad.

WETA As always, New Zealand’s make-up and special effects movie maestros will take you behind the scenes of one of the greatest film series in cinema history.

6

What’s the best thing about playing Oin in The Hobbit? “Being part of one of – if not the – biggest film projects in history as a member of a wonderful cast of actors.”

What’s the worst thing about playing Oin in The Hobbit? “Never getting to work with Cate Blanchett.”

Who is your favourite character (apart from Oin) in Middle Earth? “Cate Blanchett…oh, sorry, Gandalf. I like to think that it was a toss-up between him and me for the role.

Can’t imagine why I didn’t get it!”

What’s the weirdest and/ or most interesting fan encounter that you’ve had?

“One fan actually contracted some work for me in Europe – that was great! But knowing that you’ve had a positive influence in someone’s life is amazing, and humbling.”

How would you describe Peter Jackson in five words or less? “Funny, focused, familyoriented genius.”

SUMMER GLAU Supanova regular, Summer Glau, has cult credentials that put her right at the top of any fan convention’s wish list. A prima ballerina with beauty, poise, and style to burn, Summer first won hearts as River Tam on Joss Whedon’s Firefly, and has since become a geek poster girl, appearing in Terminator:The Sarah Connor Chronicles, The 4400, Dollhouse, The Cape, Alphas, Chuck and The Big Bang Theory.

SEAN MAHER Joining Sumer Glau at Supanova will be her on-screen brother from Firefly, Sean Maher, who brought charm, grit, and warmth to the character of Simon Tam, a trauma surgeon who throws everything away to save River from the horrors of an Alliance Academy in Joss Whedon’s cult favourite sci-fi series.

VIRGINIA HEY Australian-born international model and actress, Virginia Hey, has appeared in the likes of Prisoner, Neighbours and E Street, but is famed for her performances as the gutsy Warrior Woman in Mad Max 2, and as Pa’u Zotoh Zhaan on the popular science fiction TV series, Farscape.

TERRY MOLLOY Terry Molloy is justifiably renowned for his role as mad scientist and intergalactic badass, Davros – the creator of the Daleks – in Doctor Who, appearing in “Resurrection Of The Daleks” with Peter Davison, “Revelation Of The Daleks” with Colin Baker, and “Remembrance Of The Daleks” with Sylvester McCoy. 8

JOE FLANIGAN A veteran actor with a host of roles in the worlds of TV (Dawson’s Creek, First Monday), theatre and film (The Other Sister), the LAbased Joe Flanigan scored everlasting cult cache with his recurring role as Lt.

GET UP CLOSE & PERSONAL WITH YOUR FAVOURITE FILM AND TELEVISION STARS! CHRISTIAN ANTIDORMI

(TIBERIUS IN SPARTACUS: WAR OF THE DAMNED)

LIAM MCINTYRE Stepping into the very big shoes of the late Andy Whitfield, charismatic Australian actor, Liam McIntyre, has effectively made the role of Roman gladiator and rebellion leader, Spartacus, his own in the violent, bloody series, Spartacus: Blood And Sand and Spartacus:War Of The Damned.

TODD LASANCE With an impressive resume boasting roles in Home And Away, Rescue: Special Ops, Crownies, Cloudstreet, and The Underbelly Files, Australian actor, Todd Lasance, swaggered into Supanova territory with his striking performance as a nefarious young Julius Caesar in Spartacus:War Of The Damned.

CHRISTIAN ANTIDORMI Starting out on the family-friendly Aussie soap, Home And Away, young actor, Christian Antidormi, has turned his image on its head with his uncompromising performance as the vicious, rapacious Tiberius, the scheming son and right-hand-man of Roman military mastermind, Crassus.

GARY JONES Gary Jones has worked on television and on stage in Britain and Canada, but is best known for his recurring role as Sgt. Walter Harriman in Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. He has also made guest appearances on other genre faves like Sliders, Cold Squad, The Outer Limits, Andromeda and Dead Like Me.

www.moshtix.com.au WE NEED YOU! Volunteer at www.supanova.com.au

What’s the best thing about playing Tiberius on Spartacus? “Besides his incredible arc throughout the season, he’s a bad guy. And playing a bad guy is so much fun! He tried so hard to constantly prove himself to his father and everyone around him, and the lengths that he went to in order to achieve what he wanted was really interesting and exciting to play.”

Have you been to Supanova before? If not, what are you expecting?

“I haven’t! I can’t wait for the experience, and to meet so many awesome Spartacus fans.”

Are you prepared to sign anything? Limbs, foreheads... “Why not!?”

Are you a bit of a “geek” yourself? “You betcha! I’ve been the biggest Breaking Bad fan since day one, and shows like Game Of Thrones and The Walking Dead are just phenomenal. With movies, the Harry Potter, Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit series fit right into my geek mode.”

Which actor or director would you be most starstruck to meet? “The list is endless... with actors, I’d love to brain pick Leo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, and Al Pacino, just to name a few. With directors, definitely Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg and Quentin Tarantino.”

The biggest names in film and TV are at Supanova for your autograph signing and photographing pleasure.

THE CREATORS OF DANGER 5 (Adelaide exclusive) Dario Russo, the co-creator of SBS-TV’s hilariously stylised sixties spy spoof, Danger 5, plus cast members, Sean James Murphy and Natasa Ristic, are hitting Supanova in Adelaide on Saturday, for a very special panel discussion where they’ll also give away great Danger 5 autographed posters, DVDs and caps!

ZOIE PALMER Canadian actress, Zoie Palmer, won over Lost Girl viewers as the insatiably curious doctor, Lauren Lewis, the moment that her hand lingered a little too long on the back of the show’s succubus heroine, Bo. Palmer’s Lauren has since become a fan favourite on this richly inventive and unconventional sci-fi series.

STANISLAV IANEVSKI Supanova never fails to bring someone from Hogwarts down under, and this year it’s the hulking Bulgarian actor, Stanislav Ianevski, best known for playing the wizard, Viktor Krum, in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire.

THE BEST VOICE ACTORS AND ANIMATORS IN THE BUSINESS

The best acting isn’t always done in front of the camera, as these brilliant voice actors and animators amply prove.

GARRY CHALK A veteran performer of the stage and screen, Garry Chalk is also a hard working voice actor, laying down vocal tracks for over 1,500 animated productions, including Class Of The Titans, the 2002 remake of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe, Beast Wars, Beast Machines, and Transformers: Armada, Energon and Cybertron.

RIKKI SIMONS An artist and writer (Ranklechick And His Three-Legged Cat, and Super Information Hijinks: Reality Check!), Rikki Simons is most famous for his voice work, and in particular for being the voice of the robot in a dog suit, GIR, from Invader ZIM.

MONTY OUM Monty is the director of animation for Rooster Teeth, and has been hailed as one of the most original action choreographers and animators working today. Prior to creating the exciting fight sequences for Red Vs. Blue, Monty created the online hit series, Dead Fantasy and Haloid.

JORDAN CWIERZ Jordan is the creator and animator of the popular Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures. He started out as a fan making the animations for fun, and after being discovered by the staff, Jordan was hired full time to work on the production team.

GREAT

MOMENTS IN VOICE ACTING MERCEDES MCCAMBRIDGE IN THE EXORCIST Though Linda Blair starred as the film’s possessed teen, veteran actress, Mercedes McCambridge, provided the horiffic dialogue that tumbles from her mouth when she’s in The Devil’s grasp.

ROBIN WILLIAMS IN ALADDIN The much loved comedian’s dazzling, hyperactive, machine-gun delivery as The Genie in Disney’s hugely popular animated film, Aladdin, was so funny and inventive that many believed him deserving of an Oscar nomination.

DOUGLAS RAIN IN 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY As the calmly monstrous computer, HAL 9000, in Stanley Kubrick’s science fiction masterpiece, the soothing, mellifluous, inventively syncopated tones of veteran Canadian actor, Douglas Rain, are one of the film’s defining glories.

FRANK OZ IN THE STAR WARS FILMS While created by George Lucas, and given form by Jim Henson and a team of ingenious puppeteers, the most memorable thing about the diminutive Jedi master,Yoda, was always his loveably sing-song voice, which came courtesy of Muppets veteran, Frank Oz. ALEC BALDWIN IN THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS Hipster hero, Wes Anderson’s films always have a profoundly literate quality, and on The Royal Tenenbaums, he pushed that conceit even further by using the gruff, dramatic vocal stylings of Alec Baldwin as the film’s omnipresent, off-screen narrator.

Four of the best writers in the comic book industry have joined forces to light a fuse of excitement and creativity in the world of television animation.

Man Of Action is a four-man writing team consisting of Duncan Rouleau (Alpha Flight, Dark Horse Presents, JLA, Superman, X-Factor, X-Men Unlimited, Adventures Of Superman, New X-Men, World’s Finest: Our Worlds At War, Teen Titans, Venom:The Hunted), Joe Casey (Cable, The Incredible Hulk, Uncanny X-Men, Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes), Joseph “Joe” Kelly (JLA, Steampunk, Daredevil, Space Ghost, Superboy, X-Men), and Steven T. Seagle (Alpha Flight, Batman: Black And White, Green Lantern: Brightest Day, Blackest Night, Justice League Quarterly, Superman, Vertical, X-Men). This impressive foursome is singularly well-known for their contributions to the world of comics, but as a team, they have proven to be an even mightier force, cutting savvily into the make-or-break arenas of television, film, and video games. Man Of Action was formed by these four industry professionals, with the aim of dedicating themselves to quality writing, and the development of top-tier television entertainment with a twist. They are best known for creating the popular American animated television series, Ben 10, which currently airs in Australia on Cartoon Network. They have also worked on X-Men, Spiderman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Justice League, and many other action titles. Meet the men who make the magic happen at Supanova!

Brisbane RNA Showgrounds, November 8-10 2013 • Adelaide Showground, November 15-17 2013

Grabbing audiences by the throat from its first scene, and continuing to squeeze without mercy through three extraordinary seasons, Game Of Thrones is the mightiest, meatiest, and most violently unforgettable show on television.

Supanova is privileged to welcome Westeros’ major players to Australian shores.

GEORGE R.R. MARTIN “A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.”

George R.R. Martin, A Game Of Thrones Born in 1948, in Bayonne, New Jersey – the son of a longshoreman and a homemaker – George R. R. Martin first put professional pen to paper at an early age, selling his stories of fantasy and horror to his neighbourhood friends for a penny a pop. His first big money sale, however, was made in 1970 at the age of 21, with the aspiring author selling “The Hero” to Galaxy for inclusion in its February, 1971 issue.

After working as a journalist, teacher, and director of chess tournaments, Martin became a full-time writer in 1979, penning a number of novels and short stories.

After the failure of his 1983 novel, The Armageddon Rag, Martin began working in television, where he toiled on The Twilight Zone, Max Headroom, and Beauty And The Beast. In 1991, he returned to writing novels, and began what would eventually turn into his epic, seven-volume fantasy series, A Song Of Ice And Fire. During completion of A Dance With Dragons – the fifth novel in the series – Martin was tapped to executive produce a television adaptation of his A Song Of Ice And Fire books. The rest, as they say, is history. The sword-swinging, blood-letting, fire-breathing brilliance of Game Of Thrones can all be traced directly back to the mighty George R. R. Martin. Make sure to thank him at Supanova.

LENA HEADEY (Brisbane exclusive) As Game Of Thrones’ sinister, conniving, incestuous Cersei Lannister, British actress, Lena Headey, has rewritten the rulebook on small screen villainy, giving body and spirit to a character alternately compelling, maddening, hypnotic, hateful, sorrowful, sympathetic and cruelly inexplicable. Amongst a cast of strange, unforgettable characters, Cersei stands tall as a true figure of fear. “I’ve had people say, ‘You’re that bitch on TV.’ But what’s more worrying is when people come up to you and tell you they think Cersei is really cool,” Headey said in a recent interview.

“As the show’s gone on, people are beginning to understand what I’m doing with her. You can’t ever have dark characters without a bit of light – and people are now starting to be like, ‘Oh, I get it...’ It’s layering.” Cersei Lannister, however, isn’t Lena Headey’s only hard-as-nails on-screen creation, with the actress also starring in 300 and its upcoming sequel, 300: Rise Of An Empire, The Brothers Grimm, Dredd, The Purge, The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones and TV’s Terminator:The Sarah Connor Chronicles. All hail the queen! www.moshtix.com.au WE NEED YOU! Volunteer at www.supanova.com.au

“Game Of Thrones is so good, even though in half the scenes, I have no clue what anyone is saying.”

Actor/writer/director, Seth Rogen “Holy Mother. I have nothing quippy or cool to say re: Game Of Thrones. I’m shattered.”Actress, Elizabeth Banks, tweets about the horiffic events of The Red Wedding.

“I don’t know what just happened in Game Of Thrones. I’m in shock.”

So does British pop singer, Ed Sheeran “I’m really loving Game Of Thrones right now. I would love to know what the episodic budget is for that show, because it’s so damn impressive looking. As far as narrative television, Game Of Thrones is probably the only appointment viewing that I have.”

Family Guy and American Dad creator, Seth MacFarlane “As the plane was landing in Ireland, I was humming the Game Of Thrones theme music… out loud! I got to visit the set, which was amazing. I even got to sit on The Iron Throne, and I got to see everything. I went through all of the departments, and I even got a Winterfell candle…I was very excited about that.” Lord Of The Rings star, Elijah Wood, might just be the biggest celebrity fan of them all…one candle to rule them all?

GAME OF THRONES:

FAMOUS FANS

The fan love for the amazing Game Of Thrones has even spread into the celebrity stratosphere, with Hollywood’s (and Australia’s) biggest names proclaiming their love for TV’s most gruesomely compelling series.

“I was given the DVDs over the summer period, so I watched them one after the other. I don’t get many lazy afternoons, but I managed to have a few, and now I’m a bit of an addict. I anxiously await the new episode each Monday night. I like it because the intrigue between the contending families is enough to sustain the storyline. I’m not usually a consumer of things with fantasy elements, but I very much enjoy it. I’m barracking for The Khaleesi, the mother of dragons. I was a little bit shocked when Ned Stark got killed off so early on. He sort of had ‘hero’ written all over his forehead, so I assumed that he would be a central heroic character for all of it or most of it. I didn’t expect the grisly end so early.”

Former Australian Prime Minister, Julia Gillard 20

MARK ADDY As Game Of Thrones’ big, bold, blustery King Robert Baratheon, British actor, Mark Addy, loomed large over the first season of the blood-drenched instant classic. A hard-drinking, hardpartying monarch whose death set in motion the grinding cogs of Machiavellian scheming that have come to define the show’s three increasingly compelling seasons, King Robert Baratheon was a truly larger than life figure brought to vivid life by the gifted Mark Addy. “The King is a complex character.

He’s depressive, he’s drunk, and he likes the whores,” said the hard working British actor, who rose to fame in The Full Monty and The Thin Blue Line, before booking roles in the likes of A Knight’s Tale, Sin Eater, Robin Hood and The Time Machine. Bow before him!

JEROME FLYNN “When you’re in something like Game Of Thrones, and you get the chance to play a part like Bronn, with that cast and with Peter Dinklage, it’s wonderful. That’s what got me Ripper Street. The writer saw it, and was thinking of me when he was writing, so it definitely opened avenues. It’s been a nice little midlife present. It gave me a career back.” Though he’s been acting since the mid-eighties (most notably on the successful series, Soldier Soldier and Between The Lines), it took his wonderfully rugged and slyly hilarious performance as Bronn – the hardened soldier and fearsome fighting man who becomes friend and fiercely loyal protector to Peter Dinklage’s Tyrion Lannister – in Game Of Thrones to turn Jerome Flynn into an international cult favourite. Backing that up with his equally strong turn as Detective Sergeant Bennet Drake in TV’s Ripper Street, this charismatic Brit is now the hardman of the moment.

Brisbane RNA Showgrounds, November 8-10 2013 • Adelaide Showground, November 15-17 2013

Supanova proves that the pen is sometimes mightier than the sword with appearances from a number of the best authors in fantasy, action, and science fiction.

SCOTT BAKER

The author of the action adventure novel, The Rule Of Knowledge – who will be appearing at Supanova in both Brisbane and Adelaide – counts down his five favourite cinematic thrillers.

SAMANTHA SHANNON (Adelaide exclusive) At the age of just 21, the movie rights to this author’s dazzling debut fantasy novel, The Bone Season – the first in a proposed seven-part series – have been snapped up by actor/producer, Andy Serkis (yep, Gollum), through his company, The Imaginarium Studios.

D.M. CORNISH (Brisbane exclusive) Inspired by Star Wars, C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien, this Australian author is the fertile mind behind the children’s/young adult high fantasy trilogy, Monster Blood Tattoo, a dazzling mix of Dickens, arcane science, and maddening monsters.

ALIENS “This was the first movie where I was really scared for the heroes.

Locked in a room, the aliens just kept coming...”

THE TERMINATOR “This was my introduction to Arnie. The idea that this machine just will not stop – that it doesn’t sleep, doesn’t rest, and will pursue you until you’re dead – was a big deal for a six-year-old! I loved the concept of time travel in this film too.”

TERMINATOR 2 “This is one of the best sequels that I’ve seen. It expanded the scope of the story, and gave much more insight into the world. It also successfully turned the terrifying Terminator into the good guy!”

INCEPTION “One of the best thrillers of recent times, this is a smart, action-filled movie a cut above the average for its cerebral content. I particularly liked the time scales explored with dreams inside of dreams.”

SEAN WILLIAMS (Adelaide exclusive) This Aurealis and Ditmar Awardwinning Australian author is most famous for his excursions to a galaxy far, far away as a key writer of Star Wars universe novels, and has also penned the acclaimed The Broken Land series.

KERI ARTHUR (Adelaide exclusive) This author of The New York Times bestselling Riley Jenson Guardian series – about a vampire/werewolf operative – has now written more than 25 books of horror, fantasy, science fiction, and romance.

UNDERWORLD “This was underrated when it came out. Seeing it again at the cinema recently showed off the amazing production design and look of the film. It gave life to an age-old myth in a cool new way... Blade crossed with Alias.”

Any Supanova attendee will tell you that cosplay is definitely one of the highlights of the expo (whether you’re a serious Cosplayer or just having fun taking snaps!) And the cosplay competitions return bigger and better to Adelaide and Brisbane in 2013.

MADMAN NATIONAL COSPLAY CHAMPIONSHIP (Brisbane) The cream of the crop of Cosplay returns to Supanova. Throughout the year, heats are held at every Supanova Expo around the country, culminating in the Grand Final, which is being held at Brisbane’s Supanova. Let the battle begin!

MADMAN COSPLAY COMPETITION (Brisbane & Adelaide) You don’t have to be a pro to get involved! The Madman Cosplay Comp invites budding new cosplayers and veterans alike to take to the stage to strut their stuff and show off their masterpieces. And just in case you needed any more incentive, there are cool prizes to be won. Be warned: you need to register at the Cosplay desk before noon on Saturday or Sunday to guarantee your place.

Brisbane RNA Showgrounds, November 8-10 2013 • Adelaide Showground, November 15-17 2013

YAYA HAN: COSPLAY AMBASSADOR

(Adelaide exclusive) For Yaya Han, Cosplay is much more than just a hobby. She is one of only a few Cosplayers in the world to build a business via this community.

Having crafted myriad costumes across numerous genres, Han has earned many awards and accolades, has acted as a judge at close to 100 conventions, and helped Cosplay gain integrity as an artform. Respect! She most recently appeared in The Syfy Channel original series, Heroes Of Cosplay, and is looking forward to meeting her fans at the Adelaide expo.

MORE COMPETITIONS While the Cosplay craziness even extends to Cosplay Chess (which uses real cosplayers as chess pieces), there are plenty more supa-comps tp sign up for. These include the Anime Game Show, Anime Trivia and the DBZ Kamehameha Blast Off! You can also test your reflexes at The Timezone Supanova Pinball Competition, exhibit your artistry at The Fan Art Competition, and belt out a tune at Karaoke!! Japan.

Almost all of Supanova’s Supa-Star guests will be appearing on stage at some point over the weekend to talk directly to their fans. They will participate in panel discussions and host masterclasses, where you can score tips from the actors and artists that you admire.

JUST A FEW HIGHLIGHTS… FROM PAGE TO SCREEN: SCREENWRITING AND FILMMAKING MASTERCLASS Steve Worland (a screenwriter on Farscape) and Scott Baker (the onset colourist for The Hobbit) take you through the basics of crafting a winning script, and also advise on the principles of top-notch editing.

The pair will also share pointers on how to pitch your script – successfully. Not for the faint-hearted!

CREATING KICK ASS CHARACTERS Bringing a memorable character to life on the page is one of the biggest challenges facing any scribe, and the masters of the craft – including Jay Kristoff (Stormdancer), Joel Shepherd (the Cassandra Kresnov series) and Keri Arthur (the Riley Jensen series) – show you how it’s done, while also debating the most kick ass characters of all time!

CREATING EPIC FANTASY The fantasy genre has exploded in recent years, and a host of well-versed panelists – including Ian Irvine (Tainted Realm Trilogy), Richard Harland (Song Of The Slums), Colin Taber (United States Of Vinland) and D.M Cornish (Monster Blood Tattoo) – will be discussing the phenomenon, as well as crafting creatures, worlds and characters. It’s going to be epic!

SUPA-STAR GUEST PANELS This is your opportunity to ask your favourite stars all of those burning questions that you have been dying to know.

Always entertaining and frequently hilarious, the guest panels are a terrific way to chill out for an hour, while hearing from some very cool people.

(Note: some panel discussions are exclusive to those who hold premium passes).

Need a rest from walking the expo hall?

Kick back in The Madman Anime Theatre, and catch up on a host of flicks from your favourite anime distributors.

TIPS FOR HAVING A SUPER SUPANOVA! 1. Tickets Pre-buy your tickets from Moshtix (www.moshtix.com.au) to avoid long queues on the day. Get in faster and get in first!

2. Food The food at Supanova is supplied by our venues so it’s generally fast food, sandwiches, tea, coffee and desserts. If you have a special diet (we’re looking at you vegetarians!), please consider bringing food with you. Supanova is a drug and alcohol-free event.

3. Cosplay Photos Lots of people attend Supanova in costume, and they look terrific.

If you’d like to take a photo with someone in costume, please ask them nicely and be considerate of other patrons (don’t block the aisles!). If you’re an intending cosplayer, please remember that Supanova is a family event, so avoid dressing in dangerous, unwieldy or risqué costumes!

4. Glomping Some fans of anime like glomping.

For the uninitiated, a glomp is a cross between a hug and a gentle tackle. Supanova does not encourage glomping, but if you feel like you must, please ask your “glompee” first! Uninvited glomping will get you evicted from the event!

30

Whether you’re going for a day or the whole weekend, we want you to have a blast! Here are ten tips for getting the most out of your Supanova experience…

5. Timetable Supanova’s daily timetable can be found in the middle of this event guide, and is also available as an iPhone app from Guidebook (download it free from the App Store). Check out the timetable so you can organise your day effectively… we don’t want you to miss out on a thing!

your friends, and your belongings.

Wear comfortable shoes, be sunsmart when outdoors and stay hydrated (we wouldn’t want you passing out when you meet your favourite guest!). Also, be careful with your possessions – you don’t want to lose something special you’ve just purchased or had signed.

6. Child Awareness For parents and guardians: as you enter Supanova, agree on a place to meet your child if she or he gets lost at the expo. In the unfortunate incident that your child does become missing, you can report this at Supanova’s Information Desk (see the map in the middle of this event guide). You can also pick up a “lost child ID wristband” there so you can be contacted if you do mistakenly part ways with your child.

8. Cash There are ATMs available at the venues, but queues can be lengthy!

It’s a good idea to withdraw your cash prior to arriving at the event as no one wants to spend more time in queues than is necessary (though it’s a great way to make new friends!).

If you’re after an autograph or photo, check the Quick Guest Guide on Page 32 so you can include it in your budget.

Mature Content: Supanova is a family event and our retailers are responsible folks, but some exhibitors stock material that could be considered ‘adults only’. Please note it’s your responsibility to prevent your child from stumbling across certain subjects.

9. Transport For a more enjoyable day, research the public transport options to and from the event prior to the expo.

Alternatively, check out parking or car pooling options. Parking availability and price is at the discretion of the venue.

7. Take Care Out There Please take good care of yourself,

Various characters will be on site throughout both days raising money for Asperlutely Autsome which support families living with autism spectrum disorders & will be available for photo opportunities with the public.

Go see them at their stand at Supanova Adelaide 2013 and join in the fun !
