[Ant-Man]

Just found out about this one.

 

Kids 12 and under are free.

Gonna try to make this one, missed the first show because of work. Did anyone here go?

Going again on Saturday; first time was okay. What are you looking for?

 

Talking to the "owner" to see if things will be different/bigger this time around.

[Ant-Man]

There's a two-for-one admission deal on the Living Social website.

[manetteska]

Good deal; too bad I'm usually a "lone wolf" at these things.

 

Note: I don't think the picture on the LS website is actually of/from Mighty Con.

Yep, Bill needs to get everyone on there. I know dealer tables are sold out for this one so I hope they get a nice crowd. It would be great if this show keeps rolling, with Dan Con & TCS having multiple shows next year it will be nice to have this one also.

 

There is also the Zurko promotions Antique show in the building across the way going on at the same time. I have picked up some nice books in the past at the all night flea markets they put on. Something else to check out if you are going.

Is there any additional charge for that show?

 

Also, since this is a relatively small convention when compared to C2E2, WW, etc., anyone up for putting up pics or such of their "hauls" afterward?

Per Bill, the main organizer -

 

The Antique show is separate from MightyCon; not sure if that means there is an added admisison for that part, he didn't specify.

 

However, MightyCon itself will have 32 vendors taking up 40-50 booths. At least twice as large as last time. Not bad for $5 (or $2.50 if you got in on the LS deal).

I see the show opens at 10AM...but I don't see on the site when it closes. Does anyone know?

[wingnuts]

I liked the show the last time and will like it even better this time. Cant beat a $5 admission.

[Chi Bamm]

I attended and picked up some things I wanted. Of course I picked up some things I didn't even know I wanted. Anyone else make it out there?

[wingnuts]

I was surprised to see BDI there. Looking forward to the next one in March.

[fatninja]

I had to work later than I wanted and couldn't make it.

 

I'll have to just set up at the next one to make sure I get there!

[manetteska]

I made it out there; found some good buys.

 

In a perfect world there would have been a little less "random long boxes of comics for $0.25" and a little more organized dealers with a larger volume of stock. Some guys were very well put-together but only had 100 or so comics.

 

Anyone stroll across to the antique show?
