As I write this, I’m still in a euphoric state. Not because I was finally able to get my hands on a few key issues and fill some major holes in my collection.
When the con was announced, I was really skeptical. No one had tried to put on a show this size in St. Louis before. I had no idea what the turn out was going to be or if there was a market for the show here in town. I felt like the comic community was pretty small in our area, and I didn’t think we could support the show. Man, was I wrong. When I walked into The America’s Center, I was greeted by a line that went almost all the way to the back of the building. As I made my way into the building, I was greeted with the sight of cosplayers and fans of every “geek culture” genre. I felt overjoyed. We did it. We made this work. We showed that St. Louis can be a powerhouse on the convention circuit.

Didn't go, saving my $$$ for Crypticon Kansas City. It's much easier on my wallet. No $55 autographs or $80 photo ops. I think the most I've paid for an autograph is $30 and always free pics. http://Www.CrypticonKansasCity.com
