Chicago Comic-Con 2009 Spoils

More Comic-Con spoils. This time from the Wizard World Chicago. Light spending this year. Partly because Serena got sick and did not get as many commissions as she did last year. I mostly did some back issue hunting and was successful in finding some Aspen Comics Serena had missed. I didn’t go over our budget and we brought home some pretty good spoils.

This year’s Wizard World Chicago felt a bit less glamorous as there was no Marvel, DC, or Top Cow presence. In fact, there weren’t that many small press booths either. But in a way this was good. It wasn’t as crowded as last year and the lack of the bigger named publishers mean the traffic through the convention was moving. Artist Alley looked like it had a lot of traffic going through it. Regardless if you were a seasoned vet like J. Scott Campbell, or making your first appearance like my brother, Justin, fans of all sorts were making their way through Artist Alley, stopping at everyone’s table.
