| I have taken Amtrak to Baltimore. Not for the Baltimore Comic con but for vacation. I think it goes into Baltimore Penn, which is still a few miles from the Baltimore convention center. So I guess an Uber, Bus or Taxi is needed from there? Unless you enjoy walking that much (I sure don't!) lol |

| Amtrak won't go directly to the convention center but it'll get you close. I'd suggest a taxi from there as it is probably too far to walk. I'm excited for the show, it seems like every week they keep adding more guests. |

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| I go every year. Not sure about mass transit as I usually drive down. If you use Parking Panda to rent your parking spot you can commute in from a hotel outside of town. |

| so its easy from the train station to get a taxi. i was thinking of using amtrak. it looks nice. and once at the hotel i like the idea that the con is right next door no travel at all |

| Baltimore Penn Station is 2 miles away from the Baltimore Convention Center, which is 17 minutes by bus, 10 by car, or 32 minutes walking. Which artists/writers are you most excited to see? |

| I'm looking forward to getting my skyline variants signed. I think I have 4 people for the absolute carnage 1, 5 or 6 for venomverse 1, and about 15 or 16 for asm 700. That and I'm going to try and get a sketch from Alex saviuk although I'm not sure on what yet, and possibly Trish forstner on my stray dogs 1. |

| There will always be regrets with Cons. We only have so much $$$ to spend and so much to buy.  |

| @Nuffsaid111 my issue was more so that I wasn't as knowledgeable about artists and authors in general and ones that were going to be attending. I didn't really have any books for them to sign at the time(bought a secret wars 8 almost immediately after), however now I've bought specific books so I definitely don't miss out again. Not books that I don't want, but more so books I want that I can also get signed. Never know when someone will decide to stop doing shows or pass away even. I love being able to have on display signed books that I love and am able to have that visible memory of how much fun I had at the con or being able to meet some amazing people. |

| For return shipping, how many comics are ideal to get the best shipping rate? I plan to drop off my comics at BCC late Sunday. I was planning on going Saturday, but now I have family coming into town. Also, what booth number is CBCS? Thanks! | ||

| Ah, gotcha. She was at Awesome Con in DC this year, so I guess that covered the mid-Atlantic for her. In the past, I think that she has done both. Her teaching gig at Kubert School probably digs into her convention time. | ||

| Convention season last year was completely non-existent. This year it is existent, but abysmal from a guest perspective. Simply abysmal. |
