Scored this on Preview Night at Cal Comic Con down in Yorba Linda this weekend

And here's my top prize from the weekend. Single highest graded

Scored this beauty on Preview Night

Here's my haul from the con. All from @TerrysComics! I also won two raffle prizes 😁

Here's my big score from Preview Night

Comic Swap is this Sat in San Francisco from 12-3pm! Hope to see some boardies there again!

At Preview Night the day before, we had ~80 people show up to buy/sell/trade comics and it was a blast! Quite a few folks flew in from out of town to participate in Preview Night as a bonus to the actual con on Sunday. It was also a nice alternative for those who couldn't make it on Sunday to still get their fix. Don't want to hijack this thread, but there's lots of pics from Preview Night posted in this thread to give you an idea:

Had a ton of fun this weekend! Will post pics of my haul once I've had a chance to unpack. But until then, there's also a bunch of pics posted from Preview Night here:

I have to give a massive thanks to @Foolkiller for picking up the entire bar & food truck tab - legend. And of course to @TerrysComics for allowing us to produce a Preview Night for Cal Comic Con, the best comics-only show, without question. We hope everyone had as much fun as we did! It was awesome meeting so many boardies, Instagrammers and dealers. We capped RSVPs around 50 people, but had 72 people checked-in and missed a few walk-ins, so there were probably closer to 80 people who showed up. Amazing!!! And if anyone has any pics to share - please do!

And of course, some books! This is just a small sampling of what people brought. Everyone brought serious goods...

Here's a bunch of action shots. The room was buzzing! Not sure if it was from excitement over the books in the room, or the craft beer - probably both!

The calm before the storm. A couple boardies and Instagrammers showed up super early to get first crack at books - I guess I should have expected that @Dreamtoreal1 @streyouttacomics

Thanks for all the pics @Bumble Kitty! Glad we got to meet in person! I've got a ton of pics coming very shortly...

3 hours left before I close the thread at 3:00pm PST! Some good deals remaining...

Terry, Cal Comic Con is the single best comics-only show in the country (world?) and the quality of books showing up to just Preview Night is a testament to that! Can't wait to see all the fully-loaded booths on Sunday

More books coming to Preview Night!

In the spirit of @Foolkiller's generous offer, we'll also be giving away free Shortboxed pins to the first 20 people who show up.
