Thousands of comic world fans, cosplayers and people of all ages descended upon Inverness yesterday for a 'first ever' visit from BGCP ComiCon.
The event attracted people from all over Scotland, and was deemed a big success by hosts, Inverness Leisure.
Fans dressed in cosplay appeared en masse as events kicked off at 10am, with some well known characters on show, along with some lesser known and some self-created.
The Inverness Courier attended the event yesterday, and we were able to capture some highlights.
