Small show in Toronto, Ontario (Yes, that's Canada... :thumb: ) Not a big one by my understanding but a small comic-only event Sunday.

I'm going to my first show in a few years - going hunting for early Image and Valiant at this one. Net result I'm sure will be not much spent and another box in the basement. :D

OK for anyone who has thought of going to this one I can say this: It's not bad. I had an OK time today. The selection is your run of the mill "wall comics" behind sneeze-guards (like a buffet) but some good deals were to be had.

I picked up a few Second Life of Dr Mirage and even a gold variant :clap:

Apparently it's every six weeks or so - torontocomicbookshow.com

Now if only I could convince the vendors to bring Image titles that are not "Danger Girl" related... facepalm

Just throwing this out there for anyone in the GTA that doesn't know about this show yet. Last time I went I had a shortlist I was looking for and I found the majority of it!

I keep seeing these shows advertised on my Facebook wall. I think I might checkout the next one. Last time I got called into work just before I was leaving.

What is the selection like? Any newer stuff?
