I'll be there Saturday and Sunday. Saturday I will be getting a couple 2001 #1s signed and Sun a couple Stan signatures.

 

My brother also on the boards will be attending as well.

 

While I have yet to use the lightrail, I will be for this con. The tickets for an all day pass will be cheaper than parking.

 

Hope this con does well for everyone involved so it can keep improving.

FYI, for those of you going to the Phoenix show in hopes of meeting Todd McFarlane:

-----------------------------

Signing Information

 

Todd McFarlane and Greg Capullo will be signing together on Saturday, May 29th and Sunday, May 30th at Phoenix Comicon. On Saturday, McFarlane and Capullo will sign from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM at the McFarlane booth (303, 220-218). On Sunday, they return to the McFarlane booth to sign from 2:15 PM until 4:15 PM.

 

 

A limited number of autograph wristbands will be given out for each signing at the McFarlane booth (303, 220-218) starting at 10 AM on the respective day each signing takes place. Every attendee with a wristband gets the opportunity to meet and have items signed by McFarlane and Capullo. Limit two (2) items per person for each artist per day. In order to maintain maximum fan experience, please adhere to the daily limits.

------------------------------

 

Last year, when the show was in the smaller convention center, there was a healthy line in the mornings, but I think if you get there at least an hour early, maybe 90 minutes, you'll easily get a wristband. I'm not sure about this year, given the bigger location and the move to Memorial Day weekend.

 

Have fun, whoever is going!

Disappointed so far, hopefully tomorrow will be better. They were really disorganized with the entrance line for preview night, then dealers were sparse.

 

High point so far has to be robocard (Ed). Nice guy... Need to go back and haggle with him tomorrow. :baiting:

Did I mention that my middle name is "haggle"? :devil:

 

Looking forward to a better selling day tomorrow- lots of people but mostly "drifters" and browsers.

 

See you tomorrow.

I got the fire marshal cracking down on them today... they had crammed the line in to the exhibitor hall down this narrow hallway last night... fire inspector just told them to quit it (apparently a number of people complained)... They said take the line outside... once the hallway fills. Feel sorry for the people outside though.
