    Jealous! Looks like a good time out with the kids! Love Adam Hughes and Joe Jusko- all of the artists you spoke with seemed down to earth- wish that older crew was making comics today- I have to escape into the past with comics as the current stuff with the big 2 is lacking IMHO.

    Beta ray Bill was one of the best characters to come out of the 80s i picked up a 337 newstand in a dollar bin about a year ago along with a 338,339& 341 it was a super great day that hunt made up for a dozen of the crappy ones . Joe juskos Savage sword of conan covers are some of the best conan covers love that dude.

    Klaus Janson and Joe Jusko at the same convention, awesome concentration of artistic talent!
    That 2010 run of Zatanna features beautiful art and knockout covers (with values to match, especially for the hard-to-find Brian Bolland variants).
    Daredevil #3 is the highlight for me, particularly at that great price. And it's great to see the kids happy at the end of the day.

    The best part of this video was watching. You have a great day with your son and nephew. It’s the best when I get to go to an LCS with my son. In fact, we went to two LCS‘s this past weekend for free comic book day. My son has been looking forward to this day for months. We just so happen to be in two different towns over the weekend where we like to shop and both of them let us have comics. each of those books will be finally remembered for that alone.

    Hi Mike,
    wow, you met Joe Jusko. What a legend!!
    I still remember when my dad bought me a whole box of Marvel Masterpieces in 1992 so that I had the whole set.
    I instantly fell in love with his artwork, so did my dad. Some time later I bought him a set of Juskos Tarzan trading cards. My dad passed away three years ago but videos like yours bring back sweet memories. Thanks so much for this.

    I’m a Burroughs collector as well as comics. I have a bunch of those Tarzan cards and they’re great! I need only one issue to complete the DC Tarzan run. I’ll probably try get as many of the Gold Key and Dell issues as I can. They’re not terribly expensive, but they’re hard to find. Love that Shazam 1. Captain Marvel may have been the first comic book superhero to appear in film 1940 or 1941.

    • @lunchmoneycomics

      That table with all the black and white art was a general dealer so they had art from lots of different people, but most of the artists there had their own originals and of course some prints to sign. It was very impressive and I wish I had more lunch money to dig into the original art scene. A friend of mine forked over some serious cash for an Adam Hughes original of Storm and it was gorgeous!

    Great video! Love the Jusko book you got signed. My LCS runs this show (Merry Macs in Merrimack NH), and they've announced they're bringing the show back to the Seaport district next year, like they had the year prior to this. I guess the cost for Hynes was was steep. Personally I was a little bummed by the news but I understand this needs to be a successful business endeavor for them at the end of the day. I found the Seaport location a bit cramped haha. After the Concord show, Wicked was more a creator-meeting con for me; I do wonder if big spenders in Concord maybe dampened turnout for them being only a week after that and near April school vacations. I felt it was busy but I guess they were expecting more foot traffic. Curious as to your thoughts!

    • @lunchmoneycomics
      @lunchmoneycomics  Год назад +1

      I heard the same from several vendors, this one was expensive for vendors and tough for people to get into the city, let alone ticket costs, parking costs, etc. and yes there might have also been some fatigue for some who went to both. But at least Wicked had a different feel and there were more comic collaborators there to meet so I know for some people this show was can’t miss.

      It depends. At the concord show I was prepared to buy one big book up to $400 (I spent more) but this show I set a much lower limit due to the fact I spent so much the week before. I guess it always changes but I think a safe assumption is I aim for $100 and and willing to go a little more im for some great deals. But I’m low on lunch money now, so back to flea markets!
