I hope that show succeeds. I know that Terry is very focused on making it all about the comics and not so much about the other media that pervade the bigger conventions. Terry is an old school dealer too, which means that he's probably making a big push to get dealers there who have solid back issue stock. I think So Cal Comics is going there, and they have gotten some amazing stuff in the door over the last year and a half. I wish I could attend that show.

I saw the dealer list at Terry's booth @Wizard LA. So Cal Comics will be there, Harley took a big booth. As I recall, there were more maybe 20 or so dealer. Including some individuals who they said will be bringing their collections.

 

Wish I could go. I have a camp-out with my son.

I couldn't make it to WWLA last weekend as I was camping with my kids, so I'm looking forward to this one. Hope it gets enough people through the door to make it an annual event. I just saw an ad for it on craigslist as well - so hopefully the word will get out....

gossip.gif Just got Terry's new catalog today in the mail - it says that if you get his catalog and have a customer ID, the admission is free. You don't get a raffle ticket though.....and $5 probably won't kill you....but just in case someone out there is really cheap!

I liked how SoCal Comics worked a mention of the show into the Scoop piece on the SoCal/Esquire Batman 1-100 run. People want the show to succeed.

 

And just to put a plug in here for the show & SoCal Comics...........

 

SoCal Comics will be bringing the remaining Batman's (including the # 1), the Hollywood Hills Collection (CGC graded 9.4's-9.6's, 90% have white pages) and boxes of GA-BA books simply priced at $5.00 each.

 

An impressive wall of books and boxes of cheap books.....whats not to like about that! 893applaud-thumb.gifthumbsup2.gif

I don't remember seeing 9.4/9.6's from the hollywood hills collection on the boards 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

 

The Hollywood Hills Collection weren't offered up here on the boards. They are, however, a very nice SA collection of books that range from 9.4-9.6, most with white pages. There were also a few 9.8's too.

does anyone know what titles were in the hollywood hills collection? any detective?

 

They are all Marvel titles: Avengers, X-men, Spider-man, Fantastic Four, Daredevil, ect. I think they date from around 1965-1967 for the most part.
