A North Tyneside boy was the real life superhero at Comic Con ahead of celebrating his 11th birthday which he wasn't expected to make.
Milo Browne, from North Shields, was invited by Monopoly Events to be guest of honour at Comic Con North East at the Utilita Arena on Saturday and Sunday.
The 10-year-old suffers from a rare degenerative condition so unique it is known only as M3BHA and there is no diagnosis. The condition causes Milo to suffer from seizure and respiratory problems and he is unable to talk or eat, sit or stand without being fully supported meaning he needs 24-hour care.
