In case you are wondering, that represents the sum total of my purchases at the Kansas City Planet ComiCon. One of the bad things about trying to collect high quality back issues from the early to mid Silver Age is you end up spending a lot of money - A LOT OF MONEY. I can’t believe how much I went through in just one hour, and barely scratched my want list.
Our good friend James from Collector’s Pair of Dice was able to head to Overland Park this past weekend to check out the KC Planet ComiCon. The event was well attended on Saturday and Sunday even with all of the rain that fell over the region. Special guests Jim Lee and David Prowse were able to stick around for both days to sign autographs and have their pictures taken with fans.
The panels were terrible soundwise. There were no mics for the panels I attended, and sitting on the second row I couldn’t hear much except for the floor crowd. The panels were in the same large room as the show.
Sunday Clayburn Moore had a panel Sunday afternoon discussing sculpting of statues and action figures which the comicCon found a mic for (it needed a new battery though as the sound was distorted).
I wasn’t able to make it to the con this year for various reasons, but now I can live vicariously through the pictures James sent our way. Take the jump for the huge photo diary!
