I think Dale is going.

 

 

this is good news..I know he'll have some GA stock ! ..

[Trev]

Last year Dale, Bedrock, and Duncanville Books were the only quality GA/SA dealers I remember.

 

Anthony's art was there last year. Hope there's some Art dealers too.

[mysterio]

Harley was there too, as I recall.

Harley was there too, as I recall.

 

That's right! Forgot about that because Harley wasn't actually there. They had a bigger booth than the year before.

Crackheads finally learned to not schedule it in the middle of hunting season. I'll most likely make it down.

Only 17 weeks away!

Just wanted to gauge the interest of a board event (dinner, drinks, whatever) early so we may get some momentum behind it. Looking forward to this show!

[Trev]

Mycomicshop and I were talking about that at sdcc. Definitely.

Just a shot in the dark, but does anyone need set up help? Or table help for Friday? Drop me a pm, I may be able to help, and we could work something out.

It's been nearly 7 years since I went to a Wizard World con... hell any comic con for that matter. 2005 Wizard World Texas (Arlington at the time). Spent literally all day sitting at Tim and Joe Vigil's booth drinking Knob Creek, drawing and BSing while Tim did sketches for people.

Joe Vigil

 

Tim Vigil Sketch of Dimebag Darrell

 

Joe Vigil Sketch of a Zombie

 

One of my most prized things... an art lesson from the master himself

 

 

 

Now I remember the folks from Heritage being there. But I didn't pay attention to how it works with them at conventions as far as getting a book graded. I assume they do walk ups? And you get the book back that day?

 

If I knew for sure they would be at this one and I would be able to get a couple of books signed and graded on the spot, I would be there for sure. I've missed out on meeting Neal Adams so many times. It would be great to have him sign my Bats 227 and get it graded.

[mysterio]

The past 2 years CGC has come to Austin but does not do onsite grading there. So you can get books witnessed by CGC and submit directly through them, but they can't get your books back to you that weekend. You'll get them back in the mail just like a normal submission.

[nikk0pl3ase]

hey guys i'm planning on driving up from houston for the con. i was looking at the VIP pass for $199.99. i've never been to this con before and was wondering if anyone knew what the • CGC 9.8 (Random) meant.

 

Do we get a free submission? They just give you a random slab?

 

Also, of all the batman guys going to Austin. who would you get a batman sketch from (other than neal adams)?
