Not yet on either (pics or blog) but there should be both soon. And I saw a lot of others taking photos so I would think they'll be some turning up soon.

The show was a really good one. Lots of positive energy. And promos. Including four Breygent Marketing exclusive Red Robin promos and a Tilted Kilt promo given away at the Card Talk meeting. Breygent, and the others went all out!!!

I'll post more when I can.

What a show! Because this wasn't my first visit, it was about the attendees as well as the cards. It was great to see so many that I'd met before as well as meeting new people. This was down in no small part to the Philly card featuring myself and Hammer I've never signed my name so many times! As usual, the choice was far larger than my wallet and most of my card money dwindled within the first 30 minutes of the show. The one artist I had to see and badger for a return visit to the UK was Warren Martineck. Now working for Rittenhouse Archives, he still had time to sketch two commissions for me (see below). Excellent artist and all-round good bloke. He even gave me his name tag on Sunday! Despite the dust-gathering wallet, it was good to see what was on offer and what others were picking up. Funniest sight was Tbear (Ted) being directed by Tom Wright to pick up his door raffle prize - a superb Cryptozoic auto pieceworks card. He seem genuinely bemused!
Special thanks goes to Ed Webb who after a 12 hour drive, still found time to drop off my case of Marvel's Greatest Battles to the hotel Friday night. Huge bloke with generosity to match.
If you've never been, try it. I got messages before the first time I went that I would be disappointed that it wasn't like San Diego. It's not. It's better because it's what it says on the tin - a card show.
Many thanks to all that put in unseen effort to make the show what it is - the best card show on Earth.
