I'm all for general pop culture "comic cons", but there tends to be a real dearth of actual comics at these events. Likewise, very few "just comic" events in Scotland these days, even back issue marts. I assume because there aren't all that many actual fans/collectors?
Hahahaha! The Pittsburgh Comic Book Show has a hilarious flyer. Seriously, the big comic shows can’t get enough comic retailers? What’s up with all the fudge pavilions?
