At a Local Convention

Between work, writing at Comicbooked.com, and just getting some other personal issues swept aside I have been lax in creating a journal. Then again I was writing everyday and I almost felt it was too much and yet not enough. I have yet to buy a graded book this year. I have placed a bid on a few books but lost and I even went to the Philadelphia Comic Con and passed on a few books. One I was just going to buy just for the hell of it but money has been tight. No one seems to be tipping as much anymore and they don't seem to realize I have a habit to maintain.

The Philadelphia Comic Con is a small venue con. One I find great for picking up books. I was supposed to pick up three graded books I had gotten through a vendor but an emergency kept them away. But what was pretty damn cool was getting to meet another registry member, DuckDuckMike. Of course having a warped sense of humor I was thinking of about inquiring if he picked that name because he was a fan of Duck Duck Goose?

I quickly decided not to ask because of the two friends he had there and thought an impromptu game Duck Duck Goose would break out. Seriously who does not remember the joys of running in a circle. He had a small little booth in the corner. He had some CGC graded books. Not many were highly graded and they were ALL reasonably priced. The book I was actually thinking of getting was from him because he offered me a good price. The problem is I am picking up extra shift just to get a little extra cash and I was afraid of spending at this show (economy recovering my ).

I did buy a couple readable copies of Thor and somewhere else I bought this.....

Thanks For Reading
