They’ve saved the galaxy, they’ve helped the Man of Steel save Metropolis, and now they’re on their way to the Pacific Northwest! Four members of James Gunn’s recurring acting troupe — Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Mikaela Hoover, and Pom Klementieff — will be flying into Seattle’s Emerald City Comic Con 2026, ensuring a Super show for fans next March. (No, I couldn’t resist the Super(man) pun; sorry.)

The actors have appeared in multiple Gunn productions across the years — Sean Gunn even goes all the way back to James Gunn’s first movie, 1997’s Tromeo and Juliet! — but are likely best known as Guardians of the Galaxy’s Yondu and Peacemaker’s Red St. Wild (Rooker), Guardians of the Galaxy’s Kraglin, Superman and Peacemaker’s Maxwell Lord, and Creature Commandos’ G.I. Robot (Gunn), Superman’s Cat Grant (Hoover, but she’s also a Nova assistant in the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie if you pay attention!), and Guardians of the Galaxy’s Mantis and one of Superman’s robots (Klementieff). Together, they’re a braintrust filled with experience, stories, and no shortage of in-jokes and secrets about both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC Universe — and they’ll be in Seattle to share some of that with fans with photo ops and autograph sessions on March 7 and 8, 2026. (All four are available Saturday and Sunday only.)

Tickets for the show are currently on sale, but what kind of people would we be if we didn’t share that the way to make the most out of your ECCC 2026 experience — and ensure your place in line to meet all four of the fine folk above — is to sign up to become an ECCC Popverse Superfan, which gives you access to the following perks:
