Motor City Comic Con is loading up its spring lineup with some serious pop culture firepower. The May 15-17 show at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi is adding Seinfeld and Family Guy favorite Patrick Warburton, The Boys star Karl Urban, and a mix of voice actors and classic TV faces. General admission is already on sale, and fans can lock in autograph and photo op packages for many of the freshly announced guests.
Official guest list and ticketing
The convention’s official guest page lists Patrick Warburton, Karl Urban, Kane, Henry Winkler, Don Most, Simon Pegg, Nolan North, Michelle Ruff and others, along with autograph and photo op pricing for each celebrity, according to Motor City Comic Con. The site states that a detailed photo op schedule will arrive no later than May 1 and that send-in autograph options will roll out as the show approaches. Organizers also flag the usual fine print: all guest appearances are subject to change.
Who's on the roster
Local coverage from MLive spotlights the blend of comfort-food nostalgia and buzzy current franchises. On the TV side, there is Patrick Warburton (Seinfeld’s David Puddy and a longtime Family Guy voice), Karl Urban (Billy Butcher on The Boys), and Happy Days icons Henry Winkler and Don Most. The same report notes the convention’s strong appeal for animation and gaming fans with voice actors Nolan North and Michelle Ruff, plus WWE Hall of Famer Kane, broadening the draw across different fandoms. Premium combo offerings, including special Happy Days duo and trio photo op packages, are among the upgrades on the table, according to that coverage.
Venue, rebrand and local logistics
The Novi convention center, hosting the event, changed names earlier this year, rebranded from Suburban Collection Showplace to the Vibe Credit Union Showplace. The venue lists its address and parking details on its website at Vibe Credit Union Showplace, positioning it as a straightforward drive for fans coming from metro Detroit and nearby suburbs.

The three-day convention runs Friday, May 15, from 12 p.m.-7 p.m., Saturday, May 16, from 10 a.m.-7 p.m., and Sunday, May 17, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., with tickets available now along with add-on photo ops and autograph slots, according to Motor City Comic Con. Fans eyeing signature photos or premium packages may want to secure them early, since many guests list limited autograph and photo op availability.
