I think the Hulk 1 was the biggest book stolen but it sounded like whole batched of Golden Age books were stolen from a booth.

Are there a lot of comic book vendors at the Expo? I always go to C2E2, but have never been to Fan Expo.

I authorize u to administer greggy's annual b-day spanking.

Pretty sure the spankings are the reason he comes to Chicago every year

Does this count? ~1,100 bottles.

Kosta Browne & Cirq are outstanding pinots

Do any of the dealers set up cameras to cover their booth? 

Ritter has been doing it for years

My show was fantastic. I sold and bought very well. Attendance was slightly less, but Fan Expo has big plans for the future. I'm confident that this show will quickly be restored to its former glory. 

Next year's show is July 7-10 and from what I understand CGC will be in attendance.

Looks like the city of Rosemont agrees with @Dale Roberts

I just found this article while searching for Wizard’s stock price: 

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/creek-road-miners-inc-announces-185100477.html

Pivots to Crypto mining and/or the medicinal weed are the last desperate gasp for relevance of any company about to go under these days.

Wouldn't surprise me if this last show was a cash grab for them. Do the minimum, get what you can, and run. Not expecting much in terms of the show, other than seeing friends 😊

From looking at Wizard World's website, it seems like Chicago is going to be the last show that they run as its the only one listed under "WW Live".  And unless my firewall at work is blocking parts of the page, show details seem to be incredibly sparse (i.e. guests, exhibiters, etc.).  

Even if I didn't have a work conflict, I think I'd skip the trip to Rosemont this year regardless.

Must be blocked, as they have a few celebrity guests announced: Shatner, Michael Rooker, Dean Cain, Ferrigno, etc

that this Fan Expo news is good news for us fans of the show, and that the dates are good. 

Just found out about the FanExpo buyouts. It can only get better from here. Damn near impossible for it to get worse. That being said, I will miss the Lasix surgery and home remodeling booths

That is sweet! 

Kirby's DC work is underrated and underappreciated. Wonderful books

Well, I guess SHAGG was also referred to as a monster ...

Back in the 70s I had carpeting named after him
