Well I am FINALLY recovered enough from my 2023 surgeries that I can leaf through a long box again! Hand is MUCH better. I'll be there!!! Not sure what I want but will certainly be looking for my usual like Jungle, Jumbo, Sheena, Fight, Wings etc Good girl art! And some interesting ACGs etc. We shall see. May even add to my vg-ish Marvel post hero silver. It all depends!

Damn I must update my current list of what I have. No more dupe buying for me!!! Thank God it is on a Sunday! More time for that!

Had an excellent time! Not sure why but this was the most enjoyable con I've been to in many years. Time flew by. Picked up two Marvel 15cent (both #1s) romance comics, Gary Carter's own copy (we had a great extended chat) of Strange Tales #77, a nice lower grade Fiction House Jungle with some of the best colors I have seen and a pretty Doc Strange #1 (1974) just because. Had a surprise visit from Scott (FFB) at Marc's table and we were able to catch up after some years! 

The pizza truck in the lot was making hand pulled wood fired pizzas (got the Margarita) that was very reminiscent of the ones I got in Sicily. Hope they return for the next one!

Attendance was great--maybe our biggest spring show ever. Conversations were amazing. Plus I got to not only be next to Gary Carter, but next to Gary Carter's original wombat--same one he used for all the San Diego shows back in the day. Think of all the Church copies that were once on that rack!

 

Second show in a row for the pizza truck and with good attendance and winter over I'd assume they'd be back. Next show June 29!
