Got free tix so did a quick lap around the floor didn’t buy much but saw this cool item might be the only one in existence a flyer to the first ever Nirvana show that Cobain had printed. Dude said for authentication it will be scrubbed for DNA. |

back. got around 30 comics today (mostly random) but oh boy. pulled the trigger on spending what I think was a steal. As mentioned I was going to look for Infinite Crisis #3 (first appearance of Jamie Reyes). found a seller who had it for $20 but he advised me to try and get #5 instead (his first appearance as Blue Beetle). He had #3 but not #5. I said I might come back for #3 if I cant find #5. ended up buying a combo pack with all 7 issues (and conclusion issue) for $25 which came with Jim Lee cover for #5 which is the sought after as it has Blue Beetle front and center. I think that was a huge bargain (seller was asking $30. Offered $20...he countered with $25. agreed) I felt I had to as with the movie in pre-production. Now is the time to invest in issue But got weekend: 97 comics 2 mangas several autographs signed poster of rogue by her co-creator (which won a raffle from him for another poster) lightning collection Blue Psycho Power Ranger figure went to 3 panals (Skottie Young & Hickman panal, panal on famous movie/tv cars and their merchandising and the spiderman panal |

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. | drchaos private msg quote post Address this user | |
The only books I bought were the 13 books I bought from one of the dealers during setup on Thursday. Now that the show is over I can safely say that I got more signatures than I thought possible over the last three days. Right now I am about half way between Greensboro and Durham. Not sure how far I will go tonight. Goal is to get to Annapolis around noon tomorrow. |

Quote:Originally Posted by drchaos for me was oppisitte. a lot less signatures then I had planned. skottie young charges $5 a sig now (didnt make room in budget....but have plenty of signed stuff before he started charging), Roy Thomas was asking $5-$10 donation to do signatures (same) I wanted to get Claremount but will try to next time (if he does) return to the convention to have him sign the rogue poster Quote: Originally Posted by drchaos have a safe drive.

I agree. Anna hit this one out of the park. It was my first time meeting her, I let her pick what she wanted to draw and that is what I got. She is a super nice person and I really enjoyed talking with her. Great art as well. Check out her website. https://ann4rt.com | ||

this past weekend was perfect. I didnt get everything I planned (or spend like planned) but got better stuff. I always save $20 for newer issues ($20 each day for $1 or less bins) turns out found a lot of the somewhat newer issues (within 6 months or so) that I still needed to get were in bargain bins so was able to free up the newer comics budget (save a couple of issues) as a result got that awesome Rogue poster signed by Michael Golden (if he does return which he has) get Clarmount to sign it next time....plus finding Infinite Crisis #3 and #5 (wanted to get since the blue beetle movie) in a complete set pack for $30 (paid $25). I was disapointed Skottie Young did charge $5 now but he is worth it. had thought about paying it for one signature if I got Infinte Crisis #3 for $15 or $20 but who knew id get both #3 and #5 for around that I was so exhausted after each day rolling by roller suitcase with a shoulder computer bag (used to seperate stuff signed from bought and need to get signed) met a lot of out of towners there (who traveled out of state) to go for first time and they said they really enjoyed it |
