Marina Sirtis added to Keystone Comic Con in Philly
By D. Goodman
It has been announced that Marina Sirtis has been added to the guest list for Keystone Comic Con 2019 this August in Philadelphia.
A few weeks ago Keystone Comic Con, the little brother to New York Comic Con that takes place in Philadelphia, announced their first wave of guests. It included a pair of stars from the world of Star Trek in the form of The Next Generation’s Michael Dorn and the legendary Nichelle Nichols.
Now Keystone has revealed their next wave of attendees, and it includes yet another icon that fans know and love from the Star Trek Universe.
It has been confirmed that Marina Sirtis will be appearing at Keystone Comic Con all three days and will be taking part in panels, photo ops and autograph sessions.

For those new to the world of Trek, Sirtis played Deanna Troi for all seven seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation as well as appearing in all four Next Generation feature films. She also had guest starring roles on Star Trek: Voyager and in the series finale of Star Trek: Enterprise.
Which we aren’t going to hold against her.
Of course, no matter how you may feel about the character, Sirtis is responsible for possibly one of the greatest moments in Star Trek history. A moment that is still talked about and appreciated to this day. A moment that has entertained and enchanted viewers for years.
Ladies and gentlemen, drunk Deanna Troi.
Just one of the many reasons Star Trek: First Contact is considered the best of the Next Generation films.
I’ve been lucky enough to see Sirtis at a Star Trek convention before and she is charming and a delight to watch. With both her and Michael Dorn in attendance, you can be sure their panel should be a lot of fun and a highlight of the show.
Keystone Comic Con takes place August 23-25 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in scenic downtown Philadelphia, PA. Tickets are still available and more information can be found at the Keystone Comic Con website.
