Plus I notice the free comic book day free comics where just reprints of titles they want you to try reading. Which is a great idea but I usaly already have them all as normal editions. Plus they are mass produced and hold no real value. The joe con has the exclusive figure set which is not mass produced and I see what they end up going for in the future. Then for a real collector like me if I had them I would never sell them they are cool and can't be relaced. The Joe con is a blast I can't wait.

Free Comic Day is made up mostly of comics you might already have. I still think its cool and a great way to get people into the hobby. However they always order more then they need and you can go in pretty much whenever even after the day is over and get free stuff.
The Joe Con has a lot more going for it. :)

Even though this thread has greatly detoured from my original question:

Are there any comic stores close to the convention?

YES! And they're supporting the Convention via ads in their stores:


Comic 1 - Not near it - but a wicked guy.
44 King Street E., Stoney Creek, ON
905-664-3777

Comic Connection
895 King Street W., Hamilton, ON
905-522-2357

Conpiracy Comics
844 King Street West
Hamilton ON
905 540 9700

The last two are literally a block away from each other - about a 5 min drive from the Con.

Maybe one or two of the dealers who own comic stores might bring some copies of the Free Comic Day GI Joe comic from this year.

If any one is planning to jump out to a comic shop, only these two stores will have anything for non-regular customers:

Comic Connection
895 King Street W., Hamilton, ON
905-522-2357

Conpiracy Comics
844 King Street West
Hamilton ON
905 540 9700
