Well.......we wish they all paid...................let a lot in free(probably 150 or so), plus area shops and Facebook fans (800+ :o ) only paid $2

 

Think if the economy had not tanked the last few years, we would have already hit 500...............maybe soon :wishluck:

FINALLY! My first show in over two years and it was a huge success for me. If you're close by it's definitely worth going to. I drove six hours to get there! Took the family with me and it worked out well, thanks to Comics n ERB's family for keeping them occupied so we could look at the funny books.

 

Lucky me on Sunday only had to help unload the van and set up the boxes for the show, then it was all roaming around and catching up with old friends. My mission was to go through dollar boxes to pick up the books that I bought as a kid and that turned up to be one long box and half of a short box.

 

The room was packed from the get go and stayed that way for most of the show. The room is a large one and you still had to wait and walk side ways to get down the isles!

 

The boardies at the show that I know of were Capt Comics, Comics n ERB, and met Jacks2start(sp?) for the first time.

 

So I got some stuff and took some pics so here ya go!

Later on tonight I'm going to be posting my haul for the show. Just some great books at the show, if only my wallet was bigger!
