Lucca Comics and Games director Emanuele Vietina is understandably proud of the lineup he’s assembled for the 60th edition of this unique event, to be held Oct. 28-Nov. 1 in the Tuscan town of Lucca, which seamlessly spans the full gamut of geek culture and pop entertainment.

It also attracts more than 200,000 fans a day – many of which cosplayers – within its medieval ramparts.
