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

| I had over 100 books for Brian Bendis and a pretty good pile for Mark Waid. Now that both have cancelled it seems that more than half of the books I am bringing are for Ann Nocenti. |

| I got somewhat lucky, only had a couple books for bendis and romita jr, the rest haven't canceled yet. Last year with the covid spike I had over half the artists I wanted to get sigs from cancel last minute. |

| And surprisingly, milgrom doesn't charge much at all. 10 for sig, 15 if witnessed. 60 for remarque, 65 witnessed. | ||

| @ComicHoarder Right now he is paying of two more zero percent credit card used to pay for said comics. After paying Chase $14.7 K last month and paying down the two remaining cards BOA is due $20K in mid November while AMEX is due $20K at the end of February. Whoever dies with the most comics wins. |

| Just a note about Dringenberg again. Just got an email from BCC. He is there one day only. Limited autograph tickets being offered at Hero booth when doors open. Limit 5 per person. Thankfully, I always purchase the 1/2 hour early entry ticket. There's potential danger otherwise of being shut out. |

| @Nuffsaid111 I think tickets being sold out is still a risk even with early entry because of vendors. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by SpiderTim That's a damn good point! Although we all know this methodology for the last upteen years, it's really coming to light as of late and you're right. There is danger. I will say this though, Marc Nathan, the show promoter is not the NYCC promoters who just don't give a damn about fairness. I watched one year having him send the vendors that were in the front of Walt Simonson line to the back of the line. He knows what's going on and instructs his security to watch the hot artist, hot aspects of the show for those that abuse the system. |

| @Nuffsaid111 agreed. I have only been to the last few, but the message overall has been very fan oriented and not solely based on vendors or retailers. I was a little disappointed at the amount of facilitators clogging up some lines last year, but nowhere near the stories I hear from nycc. | ||

| Ugh .... I just got wind that a substantial amount of that WhatNot/Youtube/Insta crew is going to be at Baltimore. The last remaining vestige of something nice for the collectors/hobbyists will now be overrun by those (I'm trying to be nice) influencers. If you see someone on a line that wasn't in front of you previously. If you see someone on a line that you can't understand how they got there before you. then yep, you've been Whatnotted from an influencer. There goes the neighborhood. I'll make sure I alert the honchos and will be quite vocal about it |

| @Nuffsaid111 hoping there aren't issues like there was at nycc, but I'll definitely keep an eye out. I've limited my amount of books to be signed already due to changes in the guest list, so that helps. Also helps that several of the guests I'm getting sigs from have been pretty vocal about being very "fans first" and not pandering the retailer and influencer crowd. |

| Anyone know if Garth Ennis will be staying for all 3 days? I've got a bunch of books for him for CGC SS subs, and would rather go to the show on Saturday or Sunday as that'd give me more time to press other additional books for submission for blue labels. But the last thing I want to do is get there Sunday morning and Ennis is long gone. |

| @ComicHoarder usually they show on the guest list if they're one or two days only, his doesn't show anything so I'd assume he'll be there the whole weekend. Last year a lot of guests had specific hours for signings though so may want to check that out first thing when you get in - some were only signing for like an hour a day. |

On a side note, I wonder if it's too late to have a shirt made up that says "F*ck Influencers" to wear to the con  |
