Great stuff!!

 

Thanks, I let the little guy choose whatever he wants. He's only six so he hasn't asked for Lady Death, or Vampirella, or Zatanna......yet.

Nice stuff Chris... Where were you? It wouldve been cool to meet..

 

I was around Thursday night for a couple hours, and from about 3-6pm, then I could not make it back until Sunday.

 

I was mostly around Artist's Alley, or the art dealers with some stops to get T-shirts, Toys and games for the kids. I was left with not alot of time to see the show because of work and family scheds this time.

As a kid I use to watch the Sonic the Hedgehog cartoon and play the video game on Sega so I couldnt pass on these...

Man I loved Sonic the Hedgehog as a kid. I used to roll out of bed at 6am saturday mornings to catch the cartoon. I don't mean the weird one that got all of that play on TV but the really cool version that seemed like it was hidden in the wee hours of early morning programing. Nice pick!

I just created a CAF account. I also recently purchased a page from X-Men 212 from a boardie that will be in my possesion within the next couple of months. I'm going to try to limit myself though... I am really liking it

Did a deal for Batman:Mad Monk #1 cover by Matt Wagner. It's the homage to the 'Tec 31 cover. Happy to get it, until the Adams 227 and 'Tec 31 cover's come along.--Joe S.

I came across a young, raw art talent that just blew my mind. She has so much potential it's mindboggling. I had to get some OA from her, and she was gracious enough to give me this piece

Hey Chris, it was great to see you and meet Chris Jr. GREAT PICKUPS!!!

 

Also good to see other art collectors at the con.

 

There was a lot of great art, not just at Conrad's booth but the booths of Albert, Anthony, Bechara, George Hagenauer, Superworld, etc. Talked at length with Josh N of ComicLink about their art auctions which I expect to continue to grow in scope and quality. I saw a lot more dealers with art on display than I have ever seen before. I should have taken more pictures. doh!

 

I didn't buy any pages, but did get an Arthur Suydam sketch which I'll post when I have time. I did drool over a lot of art though. (thumbs u
