  1. Nice 2 day show in Toledo Ohio. This is more of a true comic and toy show with less of the plush sword or mystery box booths. Plus boardies like @catrick339 with his amazing 5 dollar books and wall of Golden and Silver age drool worthy raws will also be setup there. March 12-13 Seagate Centre https://www.fantasticon.net/
  2. Will do sir, but you do realize that some of these dealers haven't done a show since the 2020 one! That's okay though, more books for me to buy at 2020 prices
