I attended the show on both days.  Saturday by myself and Sunday with my kids.  I didn't make any big purchases, was mostly looking for $1 books.  Plenty of those available with no waiting.  It was refreshing as a buyer to be able to spread out and not have someone breathing all over you when digging through boxes, but I heard many dealers frustrated with the poor turnout, and I can't blame them.  Earl Shaw had a great selection of $2 & $5 books as usual and many other dealers had a great selection of $1 and $0.50 books.  I went back Sunday with the kids and they loved the cheap Funko Pops. By the time we left on Sunday around noon there were easily more sellers, artists and people working the booths than there were attendees.  The proof of vaccination/negative COVID test was absolutely the reason for the poor turnout, the Panthers game on Sunday didn't help either.  I am still excited for Heroes in June.  Hopefully all the sellers return too.

That crushes my soul...No, I can say I did not.

Check the seller's feedback, looks like he cancelled the sale, buyer does not appear to be happy

Not sure if it has been brought up before, but for those people interested in preview ads check out the below from Eternals #2

42 different sales of Excalibur #31, either in sets or individual, in the last three days on Ebay.  Not selling for a lot of money but many sales.  Somehow related to House Of X and Powers Of X

Hey that book looks familiar, I'm glad you got it ok.  I have one more copy but I'm holding onto that one.

It was in one of the first boxes I looked through on Friday morning, along with the #136.  Both are a little beat up but still had no business being in a $1 box.  I bought about 2 long boxes of $1 or less books on Friday and Sunday.  Lots of good $0.50 and $0.25 books on Sunday near the end of the show.

Some cool Lucio Parillo covers which were all $0.50 or $0.25

Now the $0.50 & $0.25 books

Just a sample of my haul from HeroesCon last weekend, starting with the $1 or less books

Here's my copy, not exactly in NM but happy to have it

Back cover to Marvel Age 6, pre-dates Marvel Tails 1, for those interested in such things

Hit the mother load at a warehouse sale this weekend, many that I didn't already have

Found it at the Charlotte Comicon show today

If it wasn't for this thread I would have passed right by this today while digging through the dollar boxes

Never thought I'd find one at this price

Thought this one looked pretty good, so I picked it up

My annual haul at HeroesCon, many that I didn't previously have

I love finding Hughes covers in the cheap-o bins

I also have an Amazing Spider-Man # 10 $2.49 cover where the indicia reads $1.99 U.S. / $2.99 CAN

The indicia for my FF #26 $2.29 Cover says U.S. $1.99 / Canada $2.99
