  1. I guess we can do a con report: Thursday started off awesome when my helpers didn't bother to show up until after all the moving in was done. I've never seen @Guardian Comics slug so many boxes & a huge shout out to his daughter for her help as well. We had a minor incident with show managers thinking that 10 minutes before the show opened was a good time to do some booth configurations but we quickly squashed that. Doors opened and there was a feeding frenzy at the Pop booth for the exclusives (kids & adults) were RUNNING to be in line. Many of them likely haven't run in years and when they didn't get to the line quick enough they were very much disappointed, didn't take Fan Expo more than a couple mornings to lay out the rules of "no running". I don't get much time to wander at this con but there seemed to be a good variety of comics throughout the room (from Gold to Modern). TGH had his mega booth as did Harley. Ice/B's brought some big books to show off that they had on consignment, CBA had a bunch of golden age bats. Jim and I brought in major Silver/Bronze Marvel/DC keys and a whack of run books. Sales on Thursday were great and Friday even better, Saturday was soft all things considered and then we exploded on Sunday. What were the "hot" books? Byrne, Byrne, Byrne, Adams and then a bunch of the other artists. Notable sales from us include AF15, TOS39, Hulk181, ASM129, AV1. All in all we love this show, though after the 4 days we are dead tired but we always have a good time seeing everyone. We rebooked again for 2019 and hope to have another record-setting show.

  17. 1. Is it the same book? Not saying someone has done something not on par but it's happened as books may have shifted around in queue 2. Who pressed the book? Who cracked it out of the case?
