Fun was mostly had. M did not buy very many comic books. I bought way too much art (but it was so cool) and Rico Renzi had these awesome covers he did with gel prints. He did an original gel print and adhered them to a Spider Gwen comic...I got one that was Debbie Harry inspired. I couldn't resist. I will have pictures up on Facebook. And we both geeked out about gel printing . M didn't get to actually meet Kevin Eastman because we didn't make the panel and the con underestimated how many people would be there and handed out tickets with times and it maxed out at 100 people. But was able to sign some items so M was able to get a comic signed and picked up a signed proof for a Magic the Gathering card.

I got overwhelmed because it was dark and loud and we walked around first and I got visually overwhelmed. I think the next con we go to if there is a program I'll use that to map out where I want to go in terms of booths and head to those first. And maybe the next time I'm at one of these I'll seek out some of the smaller artists I've bought from repeatedly and don't seem to have busy booths and just chat with them and ask them about their art.

There were quite a few anti AI signs, but I also did see some AI looking art at some places.

And there was one guest artist who had a comic book up with a pro Trump cover, which surprised me when the crowd was clearly not a pro Trump crowd. There were so many people of all ages and it seemed to be fairly accessible because I saw different types of wheelchair users, mobility scooters, and service animals.
