ACBC 2016 was a weird con. I think they struggled to get a lot of vendors. I only saw a handful of comic vendors, and then some weird ones, like a company selling heating pads. There was a weird booth right at the center of the con selling ski masks, fake knives, and gasmasks attached to bongs, and a lot of tables for local food companies to hawk their stuff. Also, there was a laser tag area, which was just a big open space with six camouflage tents. Also, multiple celebs pulled out at the last minute, including Taryn Manning, even though she was an hour away in Philly dj'ing at a local club. Bizarre stuff.
Artists alley was pretty good though, I got in early on Friday and dropped my books off to Trevor McCarthy (Thor), Jamal Igle (Lex Luthor), and Paris Cullins (Hulk Hogan). I had also set up two pre-con pieces with Essential Sequential, one for Shawn Crystal and one for Dave Johnson. Shawn did a rad Bullseye for me, but unfortunately Dave couldn't make the show. He's going to do my piece in the next little while. Hopefully he'll show it some extra love as an at-home commission
I picked up some business cards and discussed some at-home commissions, so hopefully some of the guys I missed I can still get something from. Anyways, enjoy the arts!
