After two years of nomadic existence, the world's most popular comic book fan awards have found a new home.
This October the Eagle Awards will take up residency at London's McM Expo at Excel, where the 2010 winners will be announced.
As of 2011 and going forward, the awards will become part of London McM Expo's May event.
While details are still to be finalised, Eagles administrator Cassandra Conroy said: "I'm really pleased to have inked the deal with McM's Paul Miley and Brian Cooney, considering that the London McM Expo is viewed by fans and industry alike as London's Comic-Con, the nearest the UK has to San Diego!
"It's been frustrating to have been homeless for the past couple of years and this new arrangement provides the Eagles with long-term stability.
"It also links us into a partnership with people who are as enthusiastic as I am to make them the industry's premiere awards.
