I know last year blew chunks for you C, but why dont you go this year and reveal yourself to us. We promise not to take pictures of you. Whoever else can go head out there. Id like to think of you guys are more than a Comic Code Authority Stamp, A Logo and a Woman with a Banana, etc, etc... y'know, maybe sometime I'll make that trip. I have relatives in North Carolina I haven't seen in years, so that would be an interesting trip some year. 2008 is a some year

Lot of taxes involved with buying and selling a house. Not much money left for fun stuff. Oh well...

I understand that, Ive been there. Know what you mean. These things go in cycles. Pretty soon you'll hopefully be on the other side of all of that.

G,
I'm still vacillating over whether to attend the show. Even if I don't go, be sure to stop by the Cute Girl Demographics table. It was along the back wall last year. Tell Brad and Josh you know me. They might have some interesting memories of something I said or did. They used to work at the LCS where I hung out.

BTW.. I like the word vacillate. It sounds dirty buy it's not.

Dude, understand if you cant make it, but hope to see you there!
Ive never checked out artist alley much because Im always too crunched for time looking at books, but since I will be there for a couple of days, I will probably hang out in that area some. I really want to see the Steve Epting table. As evident by the other thread in Creators, Im digging the hell out of his work.
I cant wait for the convention actually. One, I just love going to a big con. I want to skim through comic boxes for hours. Hoping I find some cheap gems. Two, its the start of a vacation for me. When I get back, my wife will be on vacation. We may go to Baltimore to check out the Geppi Comic Museum. If I go, I will certainly take pictures if I can. Im also hoping to get away a day or 2 in the Outer Banks.
All in all, it will be the start of a beautiful time for me and I think Im just going to be happy to be there because I know I have plenty of time to enjoy it.
Anyway, be looking forward to meeting any GSS members there if they go!

I was still not sure if I was going to heroes con, but I think it's off now. I've already spent more than I wanted to spend these past couple of months and I just sent Jason Adams a chunk of money for two of the rare Continuity comics I was needing. I seriously doubt that I'll want to invest the Time + Gas Money + Comic Money come Friday. It's possible that will change, but I'm starting to doubt it. I'll look at the guest list one more time before Saturday.

But if you change your mind, we'll be around somewhere. I dont usually hang around Artist Alley, but since I have so much time this time, I can see myself making an extended visit to that area checking things out.

yeah man,it's gonna be nice to have some time to really look at other stuff this year.Usually I'm in a rush to go through the cheap boxes and get the hell out of there. It does suck though when it's too crowded.Hopefully I'll make a dent in the boxes before it gets too aggravating.

Well, it's 6 AM the day of the show. Now is the time to leave if I'm going. It's a total flip of the coin. I think I'm going to stay home. I've mulled over the list several times. 10% are cool creators I've seen before. 10% are creators I wouldn't mind seeing. 20% are creators or guests I have no interest in seeing. They are people I'd insult to their face. 60% is stuff I just have no interest in. I just can't justify the 4 hour trip and wasting a whole day. The time + the gas is why I'm not going. Maybe if they beef up the guest list one year I might go again.
