Toronto Comicon 2018: Murtz Jaffer Interviews The Flash‘s John Wesley Shipp

Features, Interviews, Top Story, Video

Toronto Comicon continues at Toronto’s Metro Toronto Convention Centre this weekend. The comic/gaming/horror/anime exhibition and features a variety of geek-culture events for all ages.

On Saturday, I had the chance to catch up with some of the celebrities who will be in attendance at the event.

I spoke with The Flash‘s John Wesley Shipp and we discussed a variety of subjects. I asked him if he almost felt like he was the ‘dad’ of Comicon given the famous father figures he has played on The Flash and Dawson’s Creek. We talked about the pressures that come with landing a series as popular as Dawson’s Creek was and whether that comes with a pressure to not only follow it up but to also not get typecast. Finally, I asked him about what he was the most excited about at this year’s event. Check out the video above!

Toronto Comicon runs until today and more information is available at ComiconToronto.com.
