This shows you when it’s focused on the comics and actual comic creators… the general public does not flock to these cons. They want the tv/movie celebrities. Plus, the general public is done with the comic culture…they have moved on. This looks like a great actual comic show.
It was about time if you ask me. The " normies " don't even care about the product anyway. They simp either for the actors/actresses or their far left political agenda. Super hero comic books have to return back to OUR hands! The people, the fans, the paying customers who love and care about the characters, their moral code, their values, their ideals and their struggles.
Wow you nailed it again well said
@@Facade953 get off fox news jfc not everything is a culture war u snowflake
I disagree, there were plenty of attendees, it just wasn't too crowded, part of which is due to the size of the convention center, which was perfect. Saturday was by far the busiest but still not too bad. The nice thing is that the people there were actual comic fans and it is a great environment. Highly recommended.
@@Facade953 Thanks for saying it.
Love that this looked like a real comic show, and not a flea market of pop culture junk.
Exactly by comic lovers for comic lovers
11:42 how much was the Jimmy Olsen #134 1st Darkseid?!?
Yes, like others are mentioning -nice to see a comic book convention that's mostly about comic books. The crowd of this show was what the San Diego con was like in the 90's. I think even around 2001 you could pull into the show a couple hours after it opened and park in the actual convention center lot for $15 and walk right into the show after that initial line went down. The deals, back then, were always on the last day of the show.
Great video and nice pickups. It didn't look that busy there, which is a bonus, I might make the trip out there next year. Fan expo and comic con in Toronto is so packed that you can't even breath.
You should! This one is a must go
It was a great show. Somewhat overwhelming but definitely focused on the comic books.
too much to see in 1 day should have stayed the weekend
@@Stickygoose i bought the 3 day pass knowing it’d be good…I went 2 days and was still overwhelmed lol…
Back in 2019 it was packed shoulder to shoulder with cosplayer and Funko Pop crap everywhere but when they did the comeback show after covid they opened up a whole other section of the floor and pushed the cosplayer stuff to the back. It's so much better now, there's more room to move around and 10x more comics. I was there for 6 hours on Saturday and only managed to see a 1/4 of the comic vendors.
Wow interesting they actually changed for the better this gives me hope
@@Stickygoose I've gone almost every year since '91 and it's always been a great show but ever since the rise of the cosplayer it's been an overcrowded mess. Opening up that extra floor improved it immensely. SC Comicon in Greenville was starting to give Heroes a run for their money but Shelton really upped his game this year and last.
TNT Comics, Mom, Dad and Son are great to deal with.
Best deals in the place
I used to have Watchman 1, but I sold it when the movie came out. I should have hung on to it.
Man I want that book in a 9.8
Sticky Goose, as a Canadian and planning to hit at least one comic con vacation that is focused on buying wish list silver age comic keys, is this the go to show? If not, what is?
I was there Friday and actually am in this video a couple times...lol. You are right, this was a great con to be at. A true collectors convention. And, you are correct, you need more than one day. That is all I had but next year I plan to return with more money and to spend another half day at least there. This was my first time at HeroesCon and my only regret is I did not go sooner. Better late than never.
Im going the whole weekend next year
Happy Fathers Day! I’m going to add this convention to my travel list for next year!!!!
Thank you so much Jame that was very thoughtful
I’m like the opposite of you at cons. I don’t collect singles at all. I bring in my hardcover books for the creators to sign, bring a sketchbook for free sketches, buy some of the books they are selling. I went all 3 days and bought 0 things from the vendors
That sounds extreme more affordable and something like I would want to do in the future
Dude sorry about the accident. great video though. Just chill on the judgement of people.
I’m trying to be a better person…it’s hard but I’m trying
i wanted to go, but i was too busy playing skittle pool
What the hell is skittle pool
@@Stickygoose the ad from the back of batman 227 ^_^
I was just looking for that mr miracle #1 at awesome con this weekend, I didn't find it unfortunately but maybe ill but into you at one of these conventions one day(I'm from VA)
Hopefully I get to meet you sometime
I’m also from VA. Do you ever go to the Steel City Con? I go there every year and it’s a great Con. 😎
@@dalemoyers8881 no I haven’t I’ll have to check it out
Did you die?
The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated
I’ve only been to one convention. They are expensive to enter and I only want to buy comics. Plus, I’m not looking to overpay for them, so paying an expensive entrance fee doesn’t make it worthwhile. Comic shows are much better.
This show was worth the entry price
That’s very good to hear. Maybe I’ll go to one next year. Also, glad that you’re ok
Heroes Comic Con! 📚📚📚
Charlotte NC 🏫🏫🏫
it was awesome
That's a convention I would sell at as a tiny little vendor. I sell mostly modern age stuff so I price it to $1 for regular covers, $2 for variants, and $5 for incentive variants (verify with customer it is indeed an incentive) and everything else has a price tag on it from CP and average eBay sale.
Dollars books would go like crazy in there
Hulk #1 nft comic dropping on the veve app on Thursday morning.
wouldnt recommend buying NFTs
@Stickygoose No Colonel Sanders you're wrong
My favorite type of video from your channel. Thanks for all the effort putting it together. Very much appreciated.
Wow, thanks for saying that. I really do try hard making my videos
Gorgeous Avengers 4! You might have just swayed me from ASM 129 to Avengers 4
Best show I've ever been to. If a person couldn't find what they were looking for.. they weren't trying. Inner geek BLEW ME AWAY.
An absolute world class show ✌🏾
Couldn’t have said it better myself
I was there too. How fun!
John Wayne 😂 did he call you Sticky Pilgrim
Definitely glad nobody was hurt during the accident
also incredible finds I never owned either of those Batman I may look for that Reaper cover
I don’t know anything about Saga that’s pretty crazy it’s a $700 book hopefully they’ll make Saga a show instead of Paper Girls…Saga seems to have the bigger following
Hey now pilgrim why’d you have to get hit by that wood truck
Thanks for the overview. Definitely looked like a good time!
It was!
Sad to see man bun got his revenge on you. These are my favorite videos you do btw. Great stuff.
Glad you like them! Man buns vengeance was swift
Love all your videos, man. Keep up the good work. All the best from the UK
Glad you like them!
Dude, I love GI Combat. Jeb Stewart and the Haunted Tank.
Well at least you’re getting a big payday from the insurance can we hear an X-men 1 lol
We will see haha dont know how it’s all gonna shake out
You ran into Mike Carbinaro comic dealer legend
Which one was he again?
At the your 12:07 mark, was he well dressed in a suit? Google the guy! Your description fits him
Show was awesome! Got some great books
Yes it was!
If Post Malone called me I woundn't answer the phone...
It was really good picked up a 9.8 first rocket and some smaller stuff
Wow nice book!
Sorry to hear about the incident. Glad you made it to the con so far it seems this is the place to be for books and no fluff
You need to make the trip to this con
I see myself 2 times in your video lol to bad we didn't meet. I know digger jim. Nice pick up. Maybe next year🦁
No way! I didn’t see you! But I was so awestruck by all the books I didn’t look at anything else
I’ve done good deals with TnT comics as well at the comic cons I go to here in the south east.
You were lucky not to shop with High grade comics. They do both C2E2 and Wizard/Fan Expo in Chicago every year. I call them very overpriced comics. I look at their books every show and move on. They usually have a sign that says all their books are 15% off sticker. Too bad all their books are marked up at least 20%. This year at C2E2 they had an X-Men #1 in 5.0 priced at 33K. The booth across the aisle had an X-Men #1 in 5.0 priced at 18K. I told High Grade they were out of their minds. I bought an X-Men #1 after the show in a 5.0 for less than 13K cash.
That’s a little scam a bunch of these dealers have
Really depressing looking looks like flea market no cosplayers in sight at all big empty spaces in aisles you can drive car through them conventions like this don’t say around very long if there’s no big group of people attending for non comic fans want to show up same with movies do people actually think comic movies will be successful if only comic book reader fans where to see them only and not non comic fans he’ll no nice convention but not for me I went to one of these before my cousins act like they didn’t want to be there moment they walk through door if convention they went to with me was more like
Comic con they look little
Interesting be there.,
If comic fans can’t change with times how conventions to keep them in business to have more people sell more tickets then conventions like this one will eventually die out and comic cons will take over be popular as they are now
One of the biggest cons on east coast
I have attended Heroes con every year since 1997 and everyonce in awhile before that going back to the first one in 1982. It has always Been comic centered even when the people tried to come in during the early mid 2000's with the swords, cos play costumes, etc. Nothing wrong with that stuff but it didn't sell at Heroes con so those vendors moved on. You mentioned you were the mid to low grade silver age guy. Me too. I buy mine to read so I don't want to feel guilty taking it out of the bag to read so I just don't buy those high grade books. I WILL buy a reader copy and one to put up on some books but that's only with books that have some significance and are worth investing in. Enjoyed the video.
I will definitely be back to the con next year
It was a fun convention. The family enjoyed it and I meet many of my friends. Yes, you should have brought something to trade. Everyone was trading, even Metropolis.
That's great!
I’ve never been to a convention mainly for comics. I hear it’s better to bring cash not card ? Feel a bit iffy brining the money for grails since i am not in the best city
Where you at lol
You can see me at 7:31 to 7:35. The guy behind the guy asking about the Little Dot #1. I saw ya,I even asked them which appreance it was. This year heroscon was a blast!! Great coverage.
Very cool! Hopefully you got some good stuff
That guy that snubbed you at the highgradecomics booth looks like the owner Bob Storms. He is on the CGC forum, maybe he remembered you from your strapon video that made the rounds over there. I assume the high end dealers size you up like a car salesman and instantly decide if you are worth their time.
I think you are absolutely right about how they size people up. Very judgmental group overall dealers are
Bro, I'm sorry I missed you there, I love heroescon, we have been going for years and always enjoy it. Sorry about the accident, there was some shitty traffic in NC.
It was chaos there were collision up and down 77
Sup sticky. Have a good time man. 😅😅 sorry about the crash man
No sweat bum I’m still alive
He looked more like Kenny Rogers…he didn’t happen to start singing…
“You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run…”
And then ask you to stop for fried chicken.
Bahahaha that’s exactly what I should have said but my wife said John Wayne and that’s what I went with
This was the best con I have been to in a long time, there were so many familiar faces at the con it was an amazing time.
best one ive ever been to
Glad u ok I prefer u saying ur in a Spielberg movie DUEL you're living it
Many in the community say I’m the next spielburg…
Looks like a really cool show, nice to see just books instead of a billion funko pops. Those are cool but after while it gets to be too much. Also Key Collector made some changes, what's you thoughts on that??
Seems like they have done some improvements
You left out the most important part... What was your Cosplay costume and is that what caused the crash?
I dressed up as a wannabe youtuber....my strap on caused the collision
I posted a comic con vlog because you inspired me!😆
No you didn’t
God damn, those are some heavy hitter books......where I live we only have a few vendors
Where are you at?
John Wayne in the car?! Strange times....strange times....but that facial hair....
On second thought looked like Kenny rogers
Great video. I’m definitely going to have to check out this Con one day. 😎
You should!
crazy we in the age that spawn 1 goes for 50 dollars in LCS
Yea it’s pretty sad honestly
You got a copy of Avengers #4 for less than $200?!?! Wow. I have to go.
Lol 1300
@@StickygooseWow! I really misheard that one. It’s still a good price though. I had a beat up copy when I was young. It’d be nice to have it again.
Actually, there were some prop weapons being sold.
Hahahaha ok that made lol
That show looks amazing, are you going to any cons in Ohio this summer?
Honestly no haven’t had good luck in that area
Where I live a semi ran into a bus and fifteen people died and ten critical condition.
I am very fortunate was not much worse
Look at it like this way.. insurance is about to buy you new comics! :)
Fingers crossed haha
Dude, you punked Bob Storms😂😂😂
Which one was bob storms
Action #434 is a fun Nick Cardy cover. Bought a 9.6 for my dentist as a gift.
PS that Batman 237 you found looks really nice. A lot of times the red cover is more of a faded orange.
You like your dentist so much you bought him a book? Wow
man that was a great video ,enjoyed it alot .
Glad to hear it!
I really wanted to go to the show...but it's hard to get away. I always find those big booths are abit overpriced but I get it. I made a video on the Philly Fan Expo experience and I know those big booths pay alot on the space. It's a squeeze. I used to go to alot of the Wizard World shows and would get great deals. I like the small shows for deals but I always like a mixed show. A few Celebrities, Artist and Toys. Good video Bro!💪
Thanks for watching I will have to check that video out
That Batman 234 looks sharp
It’s a great book
This was such a great video. Great stuff
Glad you enjoyed it!
Do you only care about keys or are you a reader?
Both! I read omnibus / collected editions, and collect single issue keys or books that are important to me.
Best con ive been to yet
Same for sure
EPIC convention!!
For real
Today is the last day of heroes con
next year Im going all three days
I was there all weekend. Sorry I missed seeing you. This is by far the best pure comic con for real collectors. I love that you are not smashed between people looking for books. Great creators.
I took your advice man well done
Tnt comics are the best!!!
their prices were high at this show
I added a stack of books from Heroes to the collection. Found good deals on books in the 20-50 dollar range. Not too many people giving deals for wall books though. Most places charging $10-$20 over fmv then give you $20 off and act like it’s a deal. Overall good event but I found better deals at the Micro-Con in Concord a few months ago
I need to go to that one
Have fun buddy 😁😊
I did!
Where in the US was this?
Charlotte North Carolina
I just subscribed.
Welcome aboard
I was the big guy in the black shirt in the Dream Haven booth when you walked in there. I had my head down digging and didn't realize it was you. Small world. Glad you enjoyed heroes con.
That booth was incredible should have bought more stuff in there
I agree with you, that 1st Animal Man was stunning - I've never seen a copy that nice wow
Crazy seeing silver age books that looked like that
A lot of valuable comics available and you see the same comics in every convention video. It seems every dealer has all the major silver and bronze age comics for sale. In your opinion, do you think people are just offloading collections on the cheap or is no one paying high prices? Looks like you got some good deals by the way.
I thought the same thing...I dont know who they think is buying this over priced high end books that time is long gone
I’ve been going to this con for over 30 years. Best pure comic book con in the nation!! Sorry I missed meeting you. That was me in the blue at Dale Roberts Comics.
Oh man wish you could have said hi
@@Stickygoose maybe I’ll see you at Rick and Dave’s show in August.
Great vid dude!
Glad you enjoyed it
Cool comics 😎😁
thank you
Nice friend
Lmao did you get your channel re monetized?
@@Stickygoose not yet bro 😔
I remember hitting up OKC flea markets in 1992-1993 and finding great deals on these silver and modern agar books. I picked up a New Mutants 87 back then when it was near its peak
I think those days of finding books like that are over sadly
@@Stickygoose right! This was before selling slabbed books. I think Mylar was choice of the commonly used protective methods.
Do you happen to collect Valiant (Pre or post Unity series) I’ve started repurchasing keys like Magnus Robot Fighter 5-8 with Rai 1-4 on the flip side. Magnus 12 (First Turok).
X-0 Man of War 1, Solar 1 & 10. I’m keeping an eye on an eBay seller selling an entire run of Harbinger 0-42 1992 for 299.99
I remember getting Jim Shooter’s autograph on his 1993 Warriors of Plasm #1. I believe the venue was the now closed Planet Comics in South OKC
You got some really great high grade books. Gratz.
Yes, thank you
A show I would actually sell at and buy at imo.
I would love to set up as a dealer there as well
Glad to hear you are okay! You made me crack up
We have the same sense of humor....almost like we are related
That Avengers 4 is a keeper!
I think so to
Nice scores. That Avengers #4 by itself would've made it worth it. There were plenty of deals to be had. And with so many vendors, it would've been a shame if there weren't.
I was out there all weekend. My first time there and I enjoyed it. It's definitely a true comic con that I think perfectly balances the smaller one day shows with the big, full weekend conventions.
Tons of creators and dealers with a variety of individual comics and collected editions at a wide range of prices. And the panels too to add to the experience. Definitely glad I got to finally check it out.
Glad the accident wasn't too serious.
Happy hunting!
Next year I’m going all weekend
