This is THE spring comics event in the Toronto area for comics collectors! Whatever your specialty - back issues vintage to modern, graphic novels and trade paperbacks/hardcovers, art books, toys, statues, t-shirts and other collectibles, original art and more - the 7th Annual Toronto ComiCON Fan Appreciation event should be circled on your calendars for the weekend of APRIL 9 & 10, 2011.

 

As mentioned earlier, there are 150 dealer tables at this event, the majority of which will be selling comics and related merchandise. We always manage to sell out so if this is something you are considering exhibiting - contact us sooner than later as this show WILL SELL OUT.

 

As we are still booking tables for the show, we won't be announcing the exhibitors list until later in the month, but pretty much everyone who has signed on to do this show in the past has ALREADY REBOOKED for the Toronto ComiCON Fan Appreciation event so expect to see many of your favourite dealers.

 

And the best part about it? IT'S FREE. Doors open at 11 each day.
