Pasadena Comic Con returns to its regular January scheduling one year after the Eaton Fire forced it to reschedule to a later date in the spring.
With stars like “Hey Arnold!” creator Craig Bartlet, “Boy Meets World” actor William David Daniels (a.k.a. Mr. Feeny), actress and singer E. G. Daily (Tommy Pickles on “Rugrats,” Buttercup on “Powerpuff Girls,” Dottie on “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure”), actor and environmental activist Edward James Begley Jr. (John “Stumpy” Pepys on “This is Spinal Tap,” Dr. Victor Ehrlich on “St. Elsewhere”), Eric Bauza (voice of several “Looney Tunes” characters including Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, and voice of Puss in Boots in “The Adventures of Puss in Boots”), voice actress Kat Cressida (Dee Dee on “Dexter’s Laboratory,” Jessie the Cowgirl from Disney/Pixar’s “Toy Story,” Constance Hatchaway from Disney’s Haunted Mansion), and many others, Pasadena Comic Con is looking to raise spirits one year after the Eaton and Palisades fires devastated LA County.
Cressida is a cancer survivor who also puts her voice to use as a patient advocate for pediatric cancer patients and their families. She will be joining several other celebrities at the event in donating partial proceeds to the charity of their choice, including the Pasadena Fire Foundation.
“With all of us in Southern California either directly or circumstantially impacted — with friends and family, neighbors, and the businesses we love either suffering directly by the wildfires or indirectly because of how it’s affected the landscape and the economy — it remains a priority to give, no matter how great or small, to help LA communities rebuild,” Cressida shared. “There have been so many amazing efforts and organizations and people, thankfully, to help with the rebuilding.”
Pasadena Comic Con returns to the Pasadena Convention Center on Sunday, Jan. 25. General admission, with a 10 a.m. entry time, can be purchased in advance for $20 or $25 at the door. Early bird tickets, with a 9 a.m. entry time, can be purchased in advance for $30 or $40 at the door. To purchase tickets for Pasadena Comic Con, visit pasadenacomiccon.com.
