It’s no coincidence that Comicpalooza X is taking place in Houston, Texas the same weekend that Solo: A Star Wars Story opens in theaters across the US! To commemorate Solo’s opening weekend, Comicpalooza has unveiled a very, very special guest: Peter Mayhew aka Chewbacca! Now fans can see Solo: A Star Wars Story on Thursday night and head straight to Comicpalooza 2018 on Friday to meet this Star Wars icon. What a fantastic last minute addition to an already stacked Comicpalooza 10th Anniversary Event!
So get your best Wookiee roar ready for Peter Mayhew as he comes to Houston for Comicpalooza X! Peter Mayhew, the original Chewbacca, started his Star Wars career in 1977 as the faithful 200 year-old Wookiee in Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope and continued to reprise the role for decades in both the Original Trilogy and the Prequel Trilogy, as well as the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series and in The Force Awakens.
Comicpalooza 2018 takes place May 25-27 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. VIP passes and weekend passes, along with photo ops and autograph tickets, are all available now at Comicpalooza.com! Fans can purchase their Peter Mayhew photo ops now here!
