Does anyone know if Joe Sinnot will do a little sketch with his sig?

[gcwatson94]

I'm hoping to just get a quick remark but I would be curious also.

[Ryan.]

I'd be more than happy with a little Sinnot remark. I have a Battlefield 4 I'm shooting to get signed. I have no idea what an appropriate remark/sketch would be though...

[gcwatson94]

I want to get my capt Britain 8 signed and remarked by trimpe and sinnot. Sinnot did the fantastic four story in it.

[Ryan.]

What kind of lines can be expected for a guy like Sinnot or even Trimpe? I assume the Kevin Eastman line will be 3 hours long but what about some of these older guys that a lot of people may not have such an attachment to?

[gcwatson94]

I have no idea really. Trimpe could be big because of wolverine. I know last year Joe Kubert had almost no one in his line so, maybe it will be the same for Sinnot.

Those guys, at a big show like Boston, will not have a huge line, but at any time there could be someone getting 100 ragged books signed.

Perfect, thanks!

There are plenty of places closer than blue ribbon in Arlington, not that it is a really far drive because it isn't. One of my favorite places is in Brookline right off of route 9, Village Smokehouse. Waltham has some great places on Moody st. There are lots of good BBQ joints in Boston. We love to eat here and not just seafood.

Is that anywhere near Coolidge Corner?

[Dick Pontoon]

A hop, skip, jump or short drive down the street. If you are thinking about a trip to N.E. Comics, unless they've changed since I was there last you'll just find a run-of-the-mill shop - no back issues to speak of.

[Ryan.]

This place is fairly close to the convention center:

They're nice folks, but they have zero back issues, don't carry them. None, nada, zilch. I have not been there in a while, but I asked on my last visit. They did host Jerry Robinson at his last Boston appearance, though.

[Ryan.]

I think the last time I was there was about 1993. I remember back issues then but I guess they've reformatted.
