I could have not accomplished this without the help from the following people:

- My wife -- She puts up with me and my silly hobby

- Bloom -- My friend who came to Baltimore with me and laid out the convention floor where each creator was and texted me when their lines were reasonable

- Bagofleas -- He was in the right place at the right time for me. Help keep the Walt only and Louise only books separate from the W&L Simonson books.

- Tnerb -- For keeping me fed by inviting me to the dinner group each night

- Mike B, CGC SS -- For making sure that I always got a witness when I needed one and being a hell of a nice guy

- Mike J, CGC Witness -- For being there for most of my signatures and letting me text him when I needed a witness to come. A fellow Long Islander too!

- Cynthia, Molly, and Brittany, CGC -- Thank you for your patience as I juggled books while we closed out invoices.

- Baltimore Comic Con: Staff and Minions -- For putting on a great Comic Book show!

Now I can enjoy NYCC without the stress of collecting as many signatures. If I can get Terry Moore, Bill Sienkiewcz, James O'Barr, Howard Chaykin, Erik Larsen and Peter David I'll be very content.
