by Tom Smithyman
The Lake Como Comic Art Festival returns to Cernobbio, Italy, this spring with a lineup that rivals any other convention worldwide.
LCCAF 2026 will feature iconic creators — many of whom rarely make appearances at shows — including Brian Bolland, Alan Davis, J. Scott Campbell, Sara Pichelli, Stanley “Artgerm” Lau, and Gary Frank.
The festival, which will be April 24th and 25th, offers multiple ticket levels, including a VIP. That exclusive ticket includes a one-of-a-kind art print portfolio by Liam Sharp, spotlighting Conan the Barbarian. Each portfolio includes an original hand-drawn remarque and signature from Sharp. VIPs will also received a swag bag, exclusive variant covers, and access to the opening night reception on April 23.
“Ever since my earliest days I have longed to draw this character,” Sharp said of Conan. “He made me feel stronger at a time when I needed it. He gifted me a courage I never felt I had. He challenged me to in turn challenge the greatest obstacles of my own life.” Sharp continued, “Drawing this set of prints, mostly taken from classic scenes, has been a career-long dream of mine. I think it was worth the wait!”
Tickets for LCCAF, which range from 195 euros to 795 euros, are available here. Comicon.com will be at the show in April and will cover any announcements and interviews from Cernobbio.
