If Jim Shooter is at a con near you...

GO!

Don't think about it, just GO!

I would have stood by his table listening to stories all day. The only other comics creator even remotely comparable in my experience is Howard Chaykin. They're both full of stories, love to talk, and tell their stories well. Shooter also has I believe it was three binders FULL of copies of personal correspondence, production art, mock-ups, and more rare comics than you can shake a stick at (including a Cheesaurus Rex).

I saw him at a con this weekend, and spent about 20 minutes just listening. He does have great stories to tell. He also signed my Harbinger #1 for free :D

I'm just glad it was pretty good, long and drawn out. (that's what she said.)
