Heroes and Villains Fan Fest is coming to the San Jose Convention Center, and it’s packed full of stars from your favorite comic-inspired TV shows.

The HVFF tag line is “It’s Not Just Fandom. It’s Family.” And a good portion of the Arrow family will be gracing the con stages and photo booths.

The popular show will have three panels devoted to it: Original Team Arrow with Stephen Amell, David Ramsey, and Emily Bett Rickards, Men of Arrow (Manu Bennett, Rick Gonzalez, Echo Kellum), and Women of Arrow (Katie Cassidy, Katrina Law, Juliana Harkavy, Willa Holland).

Although Arrow is heavily represented, many other celebrities and TV stars will be on hand to talk about their projects and converse with fans.

Comic Con favorites Ming-Na Wen (ER, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) and John Barrowman (Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow) will make appearances.

Barrowman will have his own panel, John Barrowman Unleashed, which is sure to be fun considering his energetic reputation on convention stages. Wen will be joined by Brett Dalton for an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. panel.

The Atom and White Canary will be there on behalf of Legends of Tomorrow with Brandon Routh and Caity Lotz discussing their corner of the superhero universe.

Not everything is about capes and superhuman powers, however. Some members of the This Is Us cast will be in attendance.

Justin Hartley and Chris Sullivan will talk about the hit drama, which is a departure from the comic-laden fare that usually makes up the Heroes and Villains Fan Fest. (Milo Ventimiglia, who was previously announced, is no longer able to attend.)
