I thought All-American Comics retired. Have not seen them for years.

Hi!

 

We are pleased to have Gene Carpenter make the VA Comicon the return show for All-American Comics! Gene did take a step back from the show circuit for a while, but I am told he will be bringing some AMAZING high-grade unique items for his first show back THIS Sunday!

 

I still haven't figured out which inventory to bring out... 1/2 price silver and gold, 1/2 price modern comics (1980 to present), Silver age 3 for $10, or $5 hard covers. I could also bring out my High Grade bronze age marvels I debuted in Charlotte. I only have two tables... any suggestions guys?

 

Best,

 

Brett

So, who else out there is planning on double dipping...Wizard Saturday, and DC on Sunday?

I was planning on both, but Pat bailed on me for Sunday, so I'll b doh!e in good old Baltimore, doing nothing. Woohoo!

In an odd twist of fate, The Wizard World Philly Print for their show is EXACTLY the same as the VA Comicon print was...back in November 2010!

 

Arthur Suydam Zombie King Kong Print.

 

I will have a select number of the FIRST EDITION of this print, 11x17 in a rigid toploader for sale at only $10 each at the Washington, DC Comicon THIS Sunday, Father's Day June 19th!

 

More info at www.dccomicon.com

 

Repeat: We will have the Arthur Suydam Zombie King Kong Wizard World Philly Exclusive at the Washington DC Comicon the SAME weekend...for less money!

 

Oh yeah...the DC Comicon is FREE for everyone!

 

Best,

 

Brett

Any reports for this show?

[brettscomicpile]

We have some pics up of the event...

 

We were mobbed...with most tables experiencing several persons deep in business during a majority of the day.

 

I only escaped a few times for pictures, and to get my G/VG copy of GI JOE #21 personalized to me by Mr. Hama.

Many thanks to the Artists, vendors and guests who gave up their Father's Day to join us in our nation's capitol!

 

Best,

 

Brett

I had a good time. Spent about an hour looking around. I was happy to see more artists this time around. The dealers looked good and there was a pretty good selection of books to choose from.

 

I didn't have a lot to spend but I picked up a VG copy of ASM 41.

 

I'll look forward to the show next year!
