I figured a bag like that would work. I'm looking to finally hit up a bigger size Con sometime next year, post graduation, so I'm going to try planning now. Though a lot of it will be based on other things.
Which Con are you planning on hitting up? Wizard? SDCC? NYCC? Dragon? Baltimore?

Well, first you need to have a list of all your comics. Like on http://www.comicbookdb.com or an excel sheet like Cameron has.

Then you go to the NYCC website, to the Artists Alley list and run each name on your comics list and check each comics that you have by each creators and then choose which one you want to get signed.

For exemple, I have brought back the following from my parents home :

Steampunk #1 to be signed by Joe Kelly
Deadpool vol. 1 #11 to be signed by Joe Kelly (and Pete Woods if he is around)
Rising Stars #1 and Midnight Nation #1 to be signed by JMS (most likely have Cameron get them signed for me as JMS will be hard to get).
Tangled Web #4 to be signed by Rucka and Risso

See, it's easy.:D

I didn't see him anywhere. I'm taking it just in case. I'm hoping he'll be there since it will be around the release date of the new Queen & Country novel.

Cully Hamner Red 1
Steve McNiven Nemesis 1
Terry and Rachel Dodson Marvel Knights Spider-Man 1
Jim Lee All Star Batman & Robin
Need to check I have these. I'll probably want to bring them too, if I have them.

My current list for signing... still haven't got them together, but atleast I've looked at the list now.

Brian Micheal Bendis - Scarlet #1
Mark Brooks - I'll probably buy that Zombie book of his
Jimmy Cheung - Young Avengers (probably already have this signed)
Matt Fraction - more Thor One Shots, Invincible Iron Man #1
Salvador Larroca - Invincible Iron Man #1
Jeff lemire - Sawtooth #1
Steve McNiven - Old Man Logan #1
Greg Pak/Khoi PhamHercules stuff
Fred Van Lente - Mandarin One Shot, Taskmaster #1
Leinil Francis Yu - Wolverine issue from 1997 (if I can find it)
Ron Garney - Wolverine Weapon X
Cliff Chiang - that book he did with Brian 'Best Friend of BX' Azzarello
Gerald Parel - Shield #1

Bruce Campbell - hopefully free photo!
Katee Sackhoff - hopefully free photo!

What zombie book did Brooks work on? And Bruce Campbell & Katie Sackhoff are huge pluses. I had no idea they were going to be at the con. I need to sit down with a list of celebs who will be present at the con for a photo.

Check the website Wally!

Oh and I got the wrong Brooks. I was thinking Max Brooks:

It's likely to be a HUGE line.

Artist's Alley.

Also, for Jeff Lemire, it's Sweet Tooth, not Sawtooth. ;)

It was 50/50!

Seriously though, I looked on the website and couldn't find the other three creators you listed.

Oh and something to note.
On the NYCC website, they do make a point of mentioning that *paraphrased* "although comic guests tend not to have a problem signing stuff and having photos taken with you for free... celebrities are a different kettle of fish".

I am hoping we get an exhibtor pass so I can get in line before the doors even open and be at the front.

Just found those three creators I couldn't see earlier!

This is good! Some of the people on my list, I've already met before. Moon, Ba and Murphy are totally new.

Cam, would you be willing to pay for a signed photo and photo op with Campbell? On principal, I'm pretty much against it.

I think with Aaron Douglass we not only got lucky meeting him at D&B, which meant a photo during a situation where he'd find it hard to charge, but also we got really llucky getting a free photo at the con.

Maybe. Depends how much. I'd like him to autograph my book of his.


Does anyone need a copy of Nemesis 1 (first print) to get signed at the con?
