Collectors Cornered #40 - Collectors Con MD!

Collectors Cornered is a weekly video column, filmed inside Collectors Corner in Baltimore. Join us every week as we discuss comic book news from a different point of view and get instant feedback from real customers on New Comics Day, as we literally corner them and and ask questions about comic books and related topics. Unscripted, reality CC. This Installment we cover Collectors Con MD (www.collectorsconmd.com), Our First attempt as a Store at Organizing and running our own Pop Culture Convention. The goal was to cover more than just comic books and try to encapsulate more of the pop culture genre from comics to games, toys and beyond. We worked hard to bring together local, regional and out of state vendors selling everything from Arts & Crafts to Comic Books, video games and everything in between. We set up our own booth and staffed the Con with volunteers waiting for fans to pour in. Almost 400 attendees came through the doors and including tons of costumed kids and adults ready to compete in our cosplay contest and shop. Artists and Creators set up in Artists Alley including HC Noel, GCP Comics, Vince Sneed, Rob Emm, Greg LaRocque, Marc Hempel, Neil Vokes, JT Krul, Fred Van Lente, Mike Riley, Matt Heuston & David Crispino (CC's Store Manager). Comic Book Men's co-star Robert Bruce not only joined us as a Vendor in the Dealer's Room but hosted a Panel talking about collecting and pop culture. We also featured panels from local film makers, Aspen Comics with JT Krul, IDW Comics with Fred Van Lente and hosted Super Art Fight and a super cool costume contest too. Huge Thanks to our Sponsors, Geppis Entertainment Museum, League of Hot Geeks & JK Cosplay! We are already planning the next show, Time and Date TBA.
