  1. Nevermind, just found this on their website: A message from Christopher Jackson, founder and CEO of PCKC, and the team at Planet Comicon Kansas City: It is with great regret that we must announce the cancellation of Planet Comicon Kansas City 2020. When the covid-19 crisis struck just days before our March 20-22 show, and the Mayor of Kansas City issued an executive order cancelling all events within the city, we quickly and efficiently rescheduled the show for August 14-16, 2020. A full five months away! At that point, we were very hopeful and optimistic that we would have a grip on the situation and would be able to come back strong in August with an amazing event. Unfortunately, matters have not progressed as we had hoped. The health and safety of those attending Planet Comicon Kansas City is paramount. After consultations with the convention center management, as well as many exhibitors, creators, guests and fans, we do not see a way to move forward that would allow an event that resembles Planet Comicon Kansas City to proceed while also protecting the health and safety of the thousands of people who attend PCKC. The uncertainties of how to responsibly hold a large event simply are too great. The cancellation of Planet Comicon Kansas City 2020 is one of the most difficult decisions we have had to make as show organizers. PCKC has been providing quality entertainment to our fans for more than two decades. PCKC provides a venue for fans to meet their favorite creators and media celebrities, to shop for hard to find collectibles, to enjoy the amazing cosplay and props and displays, to game, to attend panels and presentations and nighttime activities, and so much more. It provides a safe venue for geeks to be themselves and to meet other like-minded geeks. We have developed a community of fans who enjoy and support our show. That support is greatly appreciated. It pains us that we will not be able to provide those things in 2020. However, once it is safe for fans to gather again, we will be back stronger and better than ever. Thank you again for your support.
  2. Any word on if this show is still happening in August?
  3. Love this book! One of my first graded comics!
  4. I'm a fan of that too, here's my copy of JIM 66.
  5. Every time a post is made in here, I always think that it is going to be a cancellation notice of Fan Expo As much as I would love to attend this show, I feel like mid-June is too early to start having large crowds of people gathering in one place. Fingers crossed that I'm wrong and everything will be fine!
  6. My copy of The Killing Joke that I picked up at one of my first Cons!
  7. Finally getting around to catching up on my scanning. Thought I would post an updated picture!
  8. While we are all on the topic of learning new things, can someone explain the atlas-implosion? Asking for a friend
  9. Not "recent" but it's they're the first Pre-Codes in my collection!
  10. Love seeing new posts in here! I was hoping to pick up some PHMs at Fan Expo Dallas last weekend but that got cancelled along with everything else...
