It is traditionally a three-day event (Friday through Sunday), usually held in May of each year. The Motor City Comic Con was founded in <a href="/wiki/1989_in_comics" title="1989 in comics">1989</a> by comics retailer Michael Goldman. </p><p>Though it primarily focuses on comic books, the convention features a large range of <a href="/wiki/Popular_culture" title="Popular culture">pop culture</a> elements, such as film actors, <a href="/wiki/Professional_wrestling" title="Professional wrestling">professional wrestling</a>, <a href="/wiki/Science_fiction" title="Science fiction">science fiction</a>/fantasy, film/television, animation, <a href="/wiki/Anime" title="Anime">anime</a>, <a href="/wiki/Manga" title="Manga">manga</a>, toys, <a href="/wiki/Horror_fiction" title="Horror fiction">horror</a>, <a href="/wiki/Collectible_card_game" title="Collectible card game">collectible card games</a>, video games, <a href="/wiki/Webcomics" class="mw-redirect" title="Webcomics">webcomics</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Fantasy" title="Fantasy">fantasy</a> novels. Along with panels, seminars, and workshops with comic book professionals, there are previews of upcoming feature films, portfolio review sessions with top comic book and video game companies, and such evening events as a costume contest. Traditional events include gaming and hours of other programming on all aspects of comic books and pop culture. </p><p>The Motor City Comic Con features a large floorspace for exhibitors. These include media companies such as <a href="/wiki/Movie_studio" class="mw-redirect" title="Movie studio">movie studios</a> and TV networks, as well as comic-book dealers and <a href="/wiki/Collectibles" class="mw-redirect" title="Collectibles">collectibles</a> merchants. Like most comics conventions, the show includes an autograph area, as well as the Artists' Alley where comics artists can sign autographs and sell or do free sketches.
