What do you do at Comic Conventions?

[stanley1883]

So the comic events simply lists them but I wanted to know how you all spend your time? Cosplay, Artist Alley, buying books, selling books, panels, debates, trolling, All of the above?

 

Usually my wife and I will get dressed up for at least one day. We're going as Bane and Poison Ivy to Phoenix Comic Con, feel free to say hello!

 

Also attend a few panels here and there and the rest of the time we just wander around aimlessly.

 

On non Cosplay days is when I try to do my purchasing, submitting to CGC, signatures and sketches.

 

How about you?

[FineCollector]

Books, and that's it. If I run out of sellers, I'll wander artist's alley...

[Jeffro.]

Buy comics and maybe meet some creators. That's really all I care about.

I try to dig through every long box in the room.

[Wipple]

i visit every booth that sells gold/silver comics. usually looking for 1 or 2 hard to find books. i then spend the rest of the day checking out the rest of convention..mind you i only hit the NYCC. 1 convention a year is enough..although one day id like to see San Diego..

[Erndog]

I spend most of my time in artist alley and all checking out all the SA dealers.

 

I'll look at the more modern guys too but usually more in passing.

I get in fights with 14 year olds who cut in front of me.

[chrisco37]

I loiter and tire kick for the most part. Chat with boardies. Buy a book or two. I'll walk thru Artists Alley, but I hate waiting in lines so I don't usually get to interact with any creators. I sat in on a panel once.

[Jeffro.]

I try to dig through every long box in the room.

 

Why you gotta be anti-short box?

[Diamonddave]

Buy, sell, trade, sub to CGC, dig through long boxes, and agonize over high dollar books.

[Erndog]

Ok, so who goes around taking pics of the cosplay girls?

[999ghosts]

Drop saliva uncontrollably from the mouth.

[CAHokie]

I head straight to Artist Alley. Everything else I can buy on the internet and usually cheaper than at the convention.

[Artboy99]

I spend the entire convention in my Vendor booth trying to sell comics. Rarely have time for me.
