It may seem incredible to some, but in 40+ years of collecting comics I have never been to a Comic Convention!
Don't get me wrong, I've been to a handful of local shows here in Vancouver BC (where the only comic celebrity you are likely to see is Greggy), but I have never been to a true, south of the border, Made in USA comic con like SDCC, NYCC, etc. I've never even been to Emerald Comic Con in Seattle!
But I've been thinking that this is the year to finally cross attending a comic convention off my bucket list. So the point of this thread is: please post your best advice for a first timer!
Thanks in advance.
