Photos of the Zatanna statuette that I got at Baltimore Comic-Con.
I remember seeing this on display at C2E2. It wasn’t on sale then, but I saw that it was at Baltimore Comic-Con. YOINK.
I should have gotten it signed by Adam Hughes while I was there. He drew the original image this was sculpted after. Oh well. Next time!

The treasures I took back from Baltimore Comic-Con 2010.
Spent a bit more than I planned, but I’m really happy with what I got! I wasn’t able to find a bargain deal on the Scott Pilgrim issues I was looking for either. So here’s what I got:
- A copy of “The Walking Dead” first Compendium
- A Zatanna statue
- Batman print signed by the artist Tim Sale
- Power Girl print signed by the artist Amanda Conner
- Baltimore Comic-Con program
- Exclusive issues of The Stuff of Legend signed by the writers, inkers, and editors
- Some sketches in my sketch book

Frank Cho signing stuff.
I think Frank Cho has been coming to the Baltimore Comic-Con from the beginning. Makes sense since it’s right here in Maryland where he lives. He’s always been one of my favorite artists; his drawing is pretty much unparalleled by any other. I used to get sketches from him at every convention, but… I dunno… I feel like he’s gotten a bit larger than life. I asked for a sketch from him a couple years ago, but he couldn’t. I guess since then I was a bit discouraged from asking him again. :\ I dunno. Maybe next time. Still love his stuff though.

Dagger statue for sale at the Baltimore Comic-Con.
I think there definitely needs to be a Cloak and Dagger movie. Definitely.

FCBD (Free Comic Book Day) issues of “The Stuff of Legend” for sale.
Not sure if I’ve told you how awesome this comic book is. If not… READ IT. I’m kind of surprised that these were $50 each for an issue that was originally given out for free, but then you’ll notice that each one has an original sketch on them by the artist, Charles Paul Wilson III. I really wanted to have him sketch in my book, but he was absent on the day I was there. Apparently he was held up by traffic or something. :(

More comics for sale at the Baltimore Comic-Con.
Kind of expensive… I guess they’re collector’s issues. A lot of these had ‘cheesecake’ covers… basically having barely naked girls on them. I don’t think any of them even have any real good stories in them… I guess they’re just more for eye candy/lonely comic book nerds?
