Zach Hoffman has been making a living standing in front of a microphone for over 30 years. His humble beginnings as a voiceover artist was dubbing Spanish soap operas into English. He logged hundreds of hours at Paramount Recording Studios on Santa Monica Boulevard and Vine Street in Hollywood. His first real break came when Rudy Ferer had him audition for the dubbing of Ingmar Bergman’s “Fanny and Alexander”. From there Zack moved on to becoming the voice of Zartan on the original GI Joe cartoon series, and has never looked back.
Also attending the 2010 Canadian Joe Con is Mark Bellomo (Ultimate Guide to G.I. Joe Author), David Willis (Shortpacked.com), and Jason Loo (the3secondrule.com, CanJoeCon Artist). All guests will be signing items at their booths with NO fees for signatures!

What is the limit that we can bring for them to sign? Can we line up again to have them sign more or do then we pay for the autographs?
The reason I ask is so I do not bother Larry with too many comics to sign...

I'm actually working on a full sheet of info for the con - but I'm trying to address this site problem first.
Plan on bringing one item for the 1st time in line, then 1 item for the 2nd, etc etc.
