Request to Terry's con veterans:  To help us 1st timers, what should we expect in terms of % of GA dealers, silver, modern, toys, graphic novels at this con?

For the drek (GGA, Matt Baker, teen humor, and GA Batman)  that I collect, I found the con to be a refreshing break from SDCC, NYCC, and Wizard Chicago.  I bought more stuff at Terry's Con than NYCC or Wizard Chicago last year.  I purchased a ton from Terry, since he brings his entire stock and his prices are reasonable.  I remember Carbo, Graham Crackers, A1 Comics, Harley, Southern California Comics, and others that I missed, plus our own super cool guy, Robot Man.  Plenty of big dealers will be present  at Terry's show.

I needed a vendor pass for Wizard Chicago for my friend, who, due to numerous injuries,  can't stand in line for long periods, so Terry provided him a free vendor pass.  Terry is truly a thoughtful guy.

I hope to drive down in less than two weeks.  Freeway 101 is closed due to mudslides.  Hopefully, Interstate 5 won't get snowed in. :wishluck:

Hope you meet you guys in person.

What are the odds that on Monday on Facebook there will be a viral post about some forgetful guy who got mixed up while getting ready to go to a comic convention and put his beer in a trunk and his comics in an ice chest.
