Heroes and villains descended on the ExCel in east London across the weekend for the annual MCM Comic Con event.

Enthusiasts dressed as their favourite characters from the worlds of film and animation for the three-day celebration of all things pop culture.

The creative costumes – many handmade – raised some eyebrows on public transport.

From Disney princesses to Japanese anime comic book favourites, the participants brought colour and creativity to the venue.

Comic book characters did battle with each other and there were enough Spider-Men for several multiverse recreations.
