I'll be honest. I've been to several comic book conventions. Although I have enjoyed myself, I find the crowds (and lines) to be quite annoying. In all honesty, I would like to attend this con just to meet people like Highland Ray.

If you attended this year's con, were there are a lot of good deals on things like Masterworks, Archives, Essentials, or Showcases? Better deals than you can get by ordering on-line?

Also, there were stories about how people like Carmine Infantino and Arnold Drake were sitting at tables with no visitors? Did anyone else see this phenomenon? I have no interest in getting in line to see Michael Turner or Kevin Smith. I would stand in line to see Stan Lee, Joe Sinnott, Dick Ayers, or Carmine Infantino.
