While I consider myself a comic fan, I've never quite made that leap over into attending a comic con. But since this one is 1 day (no hotel), and easily within driving distance (googlemaps say 15 mins), I'm considering it. What should I do? Tdub, I need your help

Interesting. I'm not really much of a comic reader anymore, but I may check this out. I still have a lot of old comics and cards from back in the day.

And maybe I can sell some of my Ultimate Spider-man #1's. People thought I was crazy buying lots of those back in the day. Ha!

Well, after the GI Joe movie, there might be enough people psyched up enough to sign up.

Also, saying psych & convention makes me think

I might go check it out since it is so close.

It's never going to get cheaper than $2 and be closer than this, I'm going for it.
