Is the Stan Lee on-site tickets (photo and signing) still on sale for Sunday for Heroes? I looked it up on Desert Wind site but didn't see any. I hoped someone here can clarify that you just show up and get tixs on the spot.

Note to self; bringing a 3 1/2 year old with you; with no backup equals not getting to look at anything that anyone was selling and mostly just walking the isles.

 

Needless to say; my grandson had a good time; me not so much; since I was unable to look for anything.

Remember the good ole days when the HeroesCon print was big, in color, and signed? Me too. Seems like years ago. Oh wait........it was.

 

Seriously, if this is my biggest complaint, what a great freakin show!

 

My only other minor complaint for this year was the lack of roped off line areas for popular guests like Perez, Simonson, etc. these lines were almost impossible to navigate and stretched forever blocking a LOT of other artists tables. In one small square of tables you had Perez, Zeck, Trimpe, and Bagley. Anyone else in that section did t have a prayer of being noticed by anyone not in one of those lines.

I went to Heroes on Saturday and had a really good time there as always. I got in a little after 10am or so and went right to the George Perez line. His line was MASSIVE AND SLOW!!!!!!! I waited for about three and half hours for George. When I finally got to him, he was nothing but a true gentleman. I had him do a Thanos sketch for me on an Avengers 1 blank. I also had him sign a Batman 400, and Crisis on Infinite Earths 8 for me as well. Here's George working on my sketch,

Next I went to the CGC booth to drop off my books for signatures. They were very busy at the show so I had to wait a bit for them to help me. I got sigs from Wrightson, Thomas, McGuinness, Sienkiewick, and Norem to name a few. They were all truly wonderful to meet. especially Wrightson and Norem who were both really excited to see the books I had for them.The only small problem I had was with Marv Wolfman. I tried to get him to sign a Tales of the Zombie book he worked on along with the Crisis 8 issue but he said he was leaving for a panel. He had just put his pens up when I tried and after, he just sat in his seat for around ten mintues or so. He said he would be back in an hour or so but I couldn't wait that long.

 

I hope everyone here had a good time a the show.

 

lol, I can't wait for next years show to come back around :grin:

Had a great time at the show this year.

 

Highlights include hanging out with fellow collectors and dealers.

Hitting up the new collection Dave had. Absolutely sick books. I was late to the good boxes by 5 minutes late and missed out big time.

 

Was able to help out a few boardies by bringing a press to the show. After Philly I just wanted to hang out and look through boxes, but was talked into it. It was great meeting so many of my customers face to face instead of trough electronic communication.

 

Great friends, food and books. Already counting down to Chicago. H
