NYCC (New York Comic Con) 2014 Pick-ups, Goodies, & Hauls!
Hey all, creating a new thread here specific to NYCC '14. The other "comic con" thread wasn't active and too varied, I'd love to see what some of your hauls, goodies, and swag look like!
To start off on my end, I was only able to attend for one day, yesterday. Since it was my first time, I had a list and stuck to it, thankfully doing everything I planned on plus a little extra. I didn't pick up a tremendous amount overall, though I must say it was SO hard to walk away from Cook & Becker's booth without buying any and everything there... My #1 goal was to meet up with Karl Kerschl & Brendan Fletcher. Karl is the artist for all of the Assassin's Creed comics from the Fall up to Brahman, and Brendan is the writer for Brahman. I contacted them a few days before the show and was able to meet up with them last night to chat for about an hour. They signed all of my comics, and Karl drew a custom one off piece for me as well!    //// Something unplanned was bumping into the artist of the Tomb Raider comics, Nicolas Daniel Selma. We also were able to chat very early in the expo for a good amount of time, and unbeknownst to me right next to his booth was the writer of the series Gail Simone. I ended up purchasing a copy of one of their issues and a limited/numbered copy of the script for volume 4.  /// I'd say those were my biggest hauls, some small trinkets and giveaways of course, wristbands, bags, posters, and the usual. So let's see your hauls!

NOooooooooO!!!! I was wondering if Gail was going to be there or not! Darn! Had I know I would've had you pick me up one! I've been trying to get all her signed exclusive covers for the TR comics for quite some time! Totally jealous my friend! Nice pick ups!
At least I guess that means there'll be a few on eBay now!

Thank you! Quote:
Funny story with Gail... I didn't even know she had a limited copy of her script. I was chatting with Nicolas for a while when someone came up next to me to meet him, and I noticed they had a script by Gail that said "Limited Edition 24 of 20". I mention it to the guy with a puzzled tone. After I finished talking to Nicolas I went to Gail sitting just a few feet from him and mentioned it to her, and she had a big laugh! She told me she will do a run of 30 copies from a script and somehow had a typo with Tomb Raider # 4 where the only copy she had left said "# 24 of 20". She didn't even know of the error after selling nearly all of the copies, and I was the first to tell her! That's why she wrote on my copy "I don't know what numbers are or how they work. =(" Last edited by Romeo; 10-11-2014 at 05:50 AM.

Re: NYCC (New York Comic Con) 2014 Pick-ups, Goodies, & Hauls!
i've bought off of ebay "convention exclusive" comic books that are supposedly rare, for a very high price,..only for a year later the website of that company to say "oh, we found these rare convention exclusive books in our "vault" and then price them at a huge liquidation markdown, where they cost less then 1/10th of what i paid for them on ebay...after they put out a press release for SDCC/NYCC as saying "only 500 copies" and "never to be sold outside of Comic-Con" etc..so i took the bait,..paying massive premiums on ebay..only to be the sucker left holding the bag some months later..by the way, i am referring to some of those MEGA MAN/SONIC ARCHIE COMIC BOOK VARAINTS.

If anyone else is at NYCC and could get me a signed comic of Tomb Raider by Gail (and Nicholas if he's still around) I'd be super appreciative! Not sure if she's still got older issues too, but definitely looking for #4 at least!! I can pay you right away if so - thanks in advance!
