I can't wait to take advantage of your depressed economy.

 

Woo hoo

 

Don't you live in Canada?

Alberta is depressed due to the oil slump, dorkface.

Are the comics depressed as well?

Hope so

If the Expo follows suit with the three on-day shows from Feb/Mar then there will be no deals for Greggy. :banana:

 

Big books were selling very well all spring so far......

Stop bullying him. He's special.

 

Oh... Yes, Greggy is special, for sure. Especially special in napping behind booths! (:

 

 

And ... Anyone know where to find schedules for comic artists/writers at Calgary Expo on what days and time they will be there for signatures? I tried to look in their website but nothing there.

I have rarely seen a artist schedule at this con.

They will only publish the days they are there.

Eegabeeva Comics from Victoria, BC # 514-515

 

Canadian Comics.net from Vancouver, BC # 616-618. aardvark88 will be napping here.

I will be getting comics signed by artist Joe Staton (E-Man, Power Girl, GL, etc.). Mike Zeck and John Beatty will be speaking at a panel so check the Calgary expo site for updates and time. :whee:

I'm still waiting for Anthill to reduce the price on his All Select 11 to align with market value. It just wouldn't be a Canadian Con without me asking about him moving off his nose bleed price.

 

See y'all there...

Is this show better than VanFanExpo?

 

No comparison. Calgary expo is mega-huge like Seattle's ECCC with decent array of media guests, Stan Lee, comic artist/inkers, different independent press creators with art prints. Layout is a bit confusing a la ECCC in that for Calgary, there are the side theaters for media guests or large :gossip: panels, a detached Big 4 Building with more comic/toy/photo vendors, and food carts outside.

Last time, I read somewhere in a newspaper that Calgary Expo is the 2nd largest in Canada (Fan Expo Canada is the first). Also is said to be one of 10-15 largest fan expo cons in North America. Obluovisly SDCC is tops on the list, then that in New York and Baltmore? :foryou:

 

Food carts ... A few ones does make good meals but is a little expensive. If your are that hungry!

 

I think on Thursday noon, there will be a little parade of cosplayers walking on street to Calgary Expo, no?
