Make it so, Number One! Commander William Riker is beaming onto the Planet Comicon stage for a once-in-a-lifetime panel that Star Trek fans won't want to miss. Although best known for his portrayal of the charismatic second-in-command of the Starship Enterprise, Jonathan Frakes has a storied resume of director credits, taking the helm of both "Star Trek: First Contact" and "Star Trek: Insurrection" and numerous episodes of various "Star Trek" series including "Deep Space Nine", "Voyager", "Discovery", and "Picard". Additional credits include "The Librarian" television films and series, "Roswell", "Leverage", and "Burn Notice".
Panel programming is open to Planet Comicon attendees at no additional charge on a first come, first served basis. Any exceptions will be clearly noted below. For example, selected workshop events may require an additional ticket.
We cannot guarantee that attendees will be able to attend a particular panel. For the safety of our attendees, we reserve the right to limit admission to any event based on the seating capacity available. Planet Comicon does not clear the seating in rooms between panel events. A limited number of FastPass admissions are available that guarantee access to premium seating for celebrity events. FastPass admissions are available only through advance orders and cannot be purchased at the door.
All events, guests, and schedules are subject to change; announcements on the day of the event take precedence over information presented elsewhere.
