How about a market report on vintage comics, original comic or pin-up/splash page art in Calgary Expo? Where did you eat a healthy lunch during the Expo or was it just cold pizza slices? You can skip the anime and cosplay pics. :o

Local comic book stores all had booths selling thier things same old same old

NO lines at all in custom drawing area with at least 3 names I had seen before (custom overnight orders available)

Stan Lee was a 2 hr line up but for extra cost it seems you could skip the line and pick up signed books next day (yippy)

There could be a fee to buy from a dealer on top of a fee to get them to bag them up or just to put them in a bag for you to carry to your booth.or there could be a delivery fee with a hand it over fee....I can contact someone to see if then can help you if you like.

Unfortunately we (DWC) have been slammed at the booth this whole show. Does anyone know if any vendors are selling bags and boards at the show?

Try talking to Marty or Ben of Phoenix Comics booths that may be displaying 5 dvd's for $10 and art books. :blush: They can probably sell you comic bags brought in from their retail stores in Calgary, AB.

Yes, they are. Red Skull had some bags and boards at their booth.

Thank you I did talk to them this evening.

 

I'm glad you guys were at the show. Thanks for arranging Stan Lee's signature on my ASM 1. I'm thrilled that I didn't have to wait in line for 2+ hours.
