Heroes Dutch Comic Con is the biggest comic con in the country, and its winter edition packs the Jaarbeurs with celebrity guests, comic artists, cosplayers, gaming, merch stalls and more superhero capes than you knew existed. If you have only ever seen comic cons on YouTube, this is the one to try.
It gets busy, so treat it like a festival: pick the panels or photo ops you care about and wander the rest.
