I've been helping a friend who had a brother pass away a couple years ago go through his large comic collection, and we decided to do a show (for starters) to try and off-load it. Basically they want to try and recoup storage fees and make some money for the mom. So if anyone'll be around the Clinton Township area on the 21st, stop by and say "hi"! I figured I'd get a table as well, and another friend will be joining us so we'll have 4 tables total!

Here's the website:

Cars are loaded and ready to go! Hopefully we'll make tons of money and never have to work again! wink.gif

Wow- not much going on in convention-land for this topic to still be sitting so high on the page! And funny enough, we'll be doing that very same show at the very same location on July 19th (2014!). We're all by our lonesome now, but that's a long story and I'm looking forward to starting out on my own at conventions! We've got a wall spot and all- so if there's anyone on these boards who's actually in Michigan stop by and say "hi". I'll give you a deal on Star Trek stuff. ;)

Yeah,this section is pretty quiet. I've tried to post a few times here and even started the Destination ST thread,lol! Maybe Trekkers don't do conventions much,lol! What,too much of a social life? LOL! Just joshin' ya.

 

Think I'm in L.A. on July 21st,or I would've popped by Michigan on my trek across the US. Comic Con starts July 23rd,main reason for being in L.A.,since I commute from there to San Diego. Don't bother with a hotel in San Diego anymore,WAY too expensive that particular weekend,so I stay at a cheap hotel in L.A. and go by train. GORGEOUS train ride,LOVE it!

 

Btw,how far are you from Lansing? Think it's the only place I've been in Michigan,lol! Visiting a Trekker friend a couple of times,which was fun.

 

J-R!

I've met a couple people from the boards, briefly. One was to purchase some DVD's and the other was waaaay back when the AA boards were going, at the Novi Comic Con here in Michigan! I think in general people here seem pretty spread out.

 

I don't know if I'd ever be brave enough to tackle the SDCC myself! Lansing is about 1 1/2 hours away.. we've made a few trips there toy hunting and for Cheddar's, a casual restaurant we really enjoy. ;)  Have fun out west!

And SDCC is actually quite fun! As is NYCC,which is a little smaller than SDCC.
