ROCKY HORROR and SPIN CITY star Barry Bostwick comes to DCS August 6-7

June 8, 2016 Dallas Comic Show

We’re honored to welcome Tony Award and Golden Globe Award-winning actor Barry Bostwick to Dallas Comic Show this August 6-7. After cutting his teeth on stage in various theater productions, he caught the attention of moviegoers with the leading man role of “Brad Majors” in THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW in 1975. Bostwick jumped into action in 1982’s classic tough guy flick MEGAFORCE, and has starred in films like WEEKEND AT BERNIES II, SPY HARD, HANNAH MONTANA: THE MOVIE, FDR: AMERICAN BADASS! and SOME GUY WHO KILLS PEOPLE. Barry has appeared in multiple TV movies in THE PARENT TRAP franchise, and provided his voice for projects like 101 DALMATIANS 2: PATCH’S LONDON ADVENTURE and PHINEAS & FERB (as Grandpa Clyde). In 1984 he played George Washington in the TV mini-series GEORGE WASHINGTON, and hosted SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE that same year. Bostwick starred on six seasons of SPIN CITY opposite Michael J. Fox and Charlie Sheen, and he’s had recurring roles in popular television series like LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIM’S UNIT, UGLY BETTY, SCANDAL and COUGAR TOWN. You may also have seen him on hit shows like SUPERNATURAL, GHOST WHISPERER, NIP/TUCK and GLEE… to name but a few. We couldn’t be happier to host this wonderful stage and screen master at our event, so help us give Barry a warm Texas welcome this August.

Dallas Comic Show

Founded in 2016, the Dallas Comic Show is a way for fans of comics, movies, television and other pop culture cravings to connect and reconnect with creators, actors and other fans!

#DallasComicShow is a family-friendly event in the DFW area featuring exciting comic book and media guests, costumed characters, gaming and Anime content.

Our mission is to bring back an affordable pop culture convention experience to the DFW area, something everyone can enjoy and embrace without breaking the bank. This is show run by fans and done for fans. We are here to make sure you have fun.

Our inaugural shows were held at the Richardson Convention Center - in the Spring of 2016 (April 23-24) and in late Summer 2016 (August 6-7). Our third event was at the Irving Convention Center on February 11-12, 2017, and our fourth back at the Richardson Civic Center on September 16-17, 2017.

In 2018 we had two fun events happening, August 25-26, and November 17-18.

In 2019, we had three shows - the first April 6-7 in Richardson, then August 10-11 in Lewisville, TX, and finally November 23-24 in Richardson.

In 2020, due to Coronavirus concerns, we decided to go on hiatus and not attempt public gatherings, which was probably for the best.

In 2021, the Dallas Comic Show returned with THREE events - the first being a single-day show on June 26, the second a two-day show August 21-22, and the third being November 6-7, and all three events will be held at the Music City Mall in Lewisville, TX. And a surprise addition, we hosted a special "Day of Cheer" on December 18, 2021 - a FREE admission event with several vendors and special guests... just in time for Christmas shopping!

In 2022, we started with February 19-20, followed by April 23-24, and then August 12-14, November 11-12, and finally December 17-18... our "Weekend of Cheer"
