Mid-Ohio will be a must for me this year with that awesome guest list. I've never met Joe Kubert before so this will be a dream come true for me. It's always a pleasure to see a living legend like Richard Ayers too. (Stupid vulgarity checker!) Lots of my favorite Bronze Age creators there as well.

 

I went to the Mid-Ohio-Con for the first time last year and had a blast. Lots of great guests and dealers but not too crowded and none of the lines were terribly long. I was worried after I heard that the Mid-Ohio-Con had changed hands, but it looks like Roger Price is still involved in some capacity, and it appears that it's going to be handled well.

I'm thinking of going....

 

Unfortunately, when you enter Ohio, the sign says long haired freaky people need not apply . :grin:

 

So I took out a pen and paper and I made up my own new sign...

...and I said thank you Lord, for thinking of me...I'm alive and doing fine!

 

:applause:

I knew you'd get that, wild man. Mid-Ohio is shaping up to be amazing this year! P. Craig Russell and Alan Davis alone will be worth the price of admission. Killraven Secret Invasion cover anyone?

I've been wanting to go for 2 years now but the long drive makes it prohibitive. it's about 8 hours or so.

 

We'll see.

I'll be there. Missed last year due to a funeral, looking forward to this one a great deal.

 

Mid Ohio is just the right size, you can see eveything, talk to everyone, and bargainhunt efficiently, and if they picked a good hotel/convention center you can knock back a couple midday beers and not miss a beat!

I will be returning for my 14th straight year. I for one did not mind the Thanksgiving weekend, but I plan to be available for this early October weekend. In fact, I'm on the verge of making a purchase which will essentially triple my inventory, and anyone who's dealt with me know that I have a lot of late golden age and silver and bronze as things stand now.

 

I question to any other retailers. I mailed my application with payment in late May, and have heard nothing regarding this. In checking with my bank, there's been no payment made on this check. I'm not able to get a response from the GCX people as of yet.

I got a call from James Henry today, following my message on his voice mail and email inquiries. He was not in his office and will return this weekend. By then, he'll be able to confirm my application. He did say that they will wait until mid August before cashing checks.
