The annual geek fest Singapore Comic Con (SGCC) will be returning to Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre on 5 and 6 December 2026 at Level 1 and B2, with a special preview night on 4 December 2026. The convention has been announcing their guests since the middle of the year, and comic book fans will be pleased with the list of creators and artists who will be visiting Red Dot Island this time around.
For starters, Red Dot Diva noticed that the Scott Collectibles team, who usually take up a sizeable corner with their usual posse of comic book guests, will not be at this year's show. Not to worry - local online store Fat Snake Comics has already invited a number of wonderful guests appearing at their booth. Their guest list includes veteran Michael Golden, Alex Sinclair, Steve Leialoha, Renee Witterstaetter, Terry Dodson, Arthur Suydam and Santa Fung.
Acclaimed Japanese comic artist and two-time Eisner Award winner Peach Momoko will also be returning to SGCC 2026. She was last here in 2024, so if you have missed meeting her or getting your books signed back then, here is your second chance!
Other returning guests are Eisner award-winning writer and screenwriter Tom Taylor, reknown Eisner award-winning French comic book artist Olivier Copiel (who was a guest more than 10 years ago in 2014!), Philippines-based artist and Co-founder/ Creative Director of HMT Studios Harvey Tolibao, and local artist/ co-founder of Imaginary Friends Studios Stanley Lau aka Artgerm, who has been a stalwart of the show for several years. South Korean artist, writer and illustrator of the supernatural thriller comic GUMAA Jeehyung Lee also makes a comeback to the pop-culture fest.
In addition, fans can meet the co-founder of Image Comics and creator of fan favorite X-Men character Bishop, Whilce Portacio. Joining him at SGCC 2026 are Clayton Crain the Co-creator of Toxin, who has recently launched his own new comic book series, Out To Hell, Claudio Castellini who is best known for his artwork in titles like Marvel vs. DC, Silver Surfer, Man and Superman, and Wolverine: The End, as well as Davide Paratore, cover artist for Marvel's ongoing series the Moon Knight.
There is one thing that Red Dot Diva noticed from this year's list of announced guests. There seems to be more focus on showcasing Asian creators and artists, like:
* Japanese artist Terada Katsuya, a master of traditional pen and ink techniques,
* 鄺東原 (Kwong Tung Yuen) also known as 上官小寶, Hong Kong’s artist known for his work in the longest running (4 decades!) comic《李小龍》Bruce Lee. He will be accompanied by his son 鄺世傑 (Kwong Sai Kit), Second-Generation Leader of Kwong's Publishing and Editor-in-Chief of 拳皇97,
* South Korean art instructor, illustrator, and painter and the founder of Superani and established AniChanga art school Hyun Jin Kim,
* Malaysian artist Ivan Tao, best known as the cover artist for Boom! Studios Power Rangers comics, Something Is Killing the Children and Vampirella,
* Filipino comic book colourist Ellery, who has worked for top publications such as DC Entertainment, Dynamite Entertainment, Image Comics,
* Singaporean homie Derrick Chew whose artwork can be seen in projects with Marvel, DC Comics, Square Enix, Epic Games and Mobile Legends.
Oh, will there be celebrities, you ask? Power Ranger actors have been part of the guest list in recent years, and it is no different this year. Event company Retro Experience are bringing in Catherine Sutherland (Pink MMPR, Zeo and Turbo Ranger) and Nakia Burrise (Yellow Zeo and Turbo Ranger).

SGCC has also invited Tracy Lynn Cruz aka Ashley Hammond the Yellow Ranger to meet her fans at the convention. So, hardcore Power Rangers fans have an exciting weekend to look forward to!
Besides the Power Ranger actors, SGCC's guest list includes Japanese actors Uji Kiyotaka (Sho / Ultraman Victory in Kamen Rider Revice, Kamen Rider Fourze, Lesson of the Evil, Another and Detective Chinatown 3), Negishi Takuya (Hikaru Raido / Ultraman Ginga, Bokutachi wa Mada Sono Hoshi no Kousoku wo Shiranai in Netflix's Ikugasami, Shogo Aoyama in Actors High) as well as voice actress Rin Tateishi, who is best known for her role as the guitarist Anon Chihaya from BanG Dream!'s MyGO!!!!!.
