Won this last night for well under GPA 

Will CGC honor the File Copy designation on a PGX slab? Do I need to submit it in the PGX case?

The comic gods were on my side and I ended up with 4-day plus Preview Night! This will be my 7th year in a row. 

Will Ray Storch be there again?

wish I could but got roped into some halloween plans I can't avoid.  You know it's an LA con when they're got a cosplay party with Black Eyed Peas.   I love silver if it's not the 30% over gpa con markup for keys.

Oh they most definitely will all be overpriced, as they are at every con!

never attended anyone know if there's any decent representation of GA books?

Not huge, mostly Silver and later. There's always some GA out there, just don't expect a lot. 

Will you be at the con? We have to meet up!

Obviously it's going to be half as good as Yorba Linda, so if you can only go to one, go to Terry's show.

I'll be at both

The big golden age show is going to be January 20 with an amazing vendor lineup. 

Interesting 

But that's also the weekend right before Cal Comic Con

Just found this thread. I was on the site the moment the tickets went on sale. Tossed in the queue. Waited forever. 4-day passes sold out. Got Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. A little bummed out it. Also, just to add to my first-world-problems, they wouldn't issue me a press pass either. *sigh*

3 days better than 0 days! 

I bought the second tix went on sale and was able to grab a couple 4 day passes but it's crazy how fast ECCC sells out now. Only a couple years ago you could get 4-day passes easily. 

Didn't see a thread for this! http://www.stanleeslacomiccon.com/

Who's going? I'll be there!

Anyone know which dealers will be there? Not listed on the site. 

Some of the creators attending: Stan Lee, Ron Liefeld, Marc Silvestri, Greg Capullo, Mark Bagley, Tom King, Neal Adams, James Tynion, Jae Lee, Norm Rapmund, Ed Brisson, Kevin Eastman and many others.

ALL AT ONCE?    What great books!

6 from one dealer, 2 were eBay wins. But they all got delivered at the same time so it was a nice mail call 

Got my 4-day pass! Looks like the 4-day passes sold out in about 15 mins. Who else is going?

Picked these up

I just downloaded Instagram a few months ago.  I guess I should see if there are any comic artist there.  Is there anything to look for?  I am teaching myself some hand lettering and follow some people there for ideas and to practice.

 

There are TONS of comic artists on Instagram, if not most of them, and very active, too. Just search for their name.

The only social media I'm active on is Instagram, and that seems to have a really large comic community.  It won't take long to get involved with others who have the same interests as you.   

+1 for Instagram. There's a very vibrant and active comic book community there, from all over the country and around the world, all with different tastes. Plus, Instagram is the perfect medium for comic books because it's all photos. You could create a comics-only account to share your obsession with others

I don't "think" so because I don't have any larger ones to test. There is a small amount of space on the sides, but if I had to guess I would say 'no' these won't fit larger books like Golden age.

Thanks. Do the top drawers feel fairly sturdy when you pull them out completely with a full drawer of slabs?

@NamesJay Will the wider CGC slabs also fit in the drawers? Like for TMNT 1, etc. 

Here's my haul. I flew over from San Francisco to attend my first Baltimore Comic Con and had a blast! I think I'll be making the trip next year, too

Picked up the Terrors of the Jungle and Shock Suspenstories from @MrBedrock. 

Here's my haul

Also a pic of @G.A.tor's booth and another dealer booth, his name was Gene but I don't remember the name of the booth. 

This was my first time attending Baltimore Comic Con (and visiting the city) and I had an amazing time. I'm on the west coast so I see the same dealers up and down the coast at all the shows, so it was awesome seeing so many dealers I've never seen before. And there are actually a lot of comics at this show, compared to a lot of other cons. Artist Alley was top notch as well. I think I'll be making the trip from San Francisco to Baltimore again next year.

My haul was modest, courtesy of Richard @bedrockcomics :

So you're the one who got this! I was eyeing for a while, left to think about it, came back and it was gone! I was pretty bummed, until I found a nice lower grade copy so I still managed to snag one. Though I really wanted the copy you got from Bedrock
