You Axed for It! Come Meet The Creators Of Axe cop With Mezco Toyz At SDCC

July 2013 - San Diego - To commemorate both the upcoming television premiere of Axe Cop (July 21, 9:30pm, on Fox) as well as Mezco's Summer Exclusive Axe Cop Badge prop-replica, Mezco will be hosting a special signing by the Axe Cop creators at San Diego Comic Con.

On Friday, July 21st, from 12noon-1pm, both writer, 8-year-old Malachai Nicolle, and artist Ethan Nicolle, will appear at Mezco's booth # 3445 to sign Mezco's Summer Exclusive Axe Cop Badge prop-replica.

Autograph sessions with both creators are very rare so this is a very special event for Axe Cop fans. This will be their only scheduled autograph signing at SDCC. Malachai's autograph is especially sought after by fans, as he rarely does signings because of his young age.
