As in, not going to be there?? Or not there yet? Or not there, in a kind of metaphysical sense?

Well, I'll be there, and hope to see you there, G.A.tor!!

Couldn't make it this year. Bummed

Parking in Chicago -  You just plain suck.

Less than a week! I've been fiddling with the C2e2 app and it's pretty neat. Like how easy it is to make a personal schedule of panels and signings. I need all the help I can get to keep my head in the game.

Im planning on cosplaying (and spending $100's on books too!) but I'm worried the main piece I ordered from etsy won't arrive by Friday. It shipped today out of Italy. Anyone think it's possible for it to make it to Iowa in a week? 

update on the shipment?  sucks to be waiting for something right before a show...

Did not make it here on time...according to tracking it is still in Italy as of 2 days ago. Bummer...but I'll have it for the next con. I knew when I ordered it that it might not make it but some reviews said they ship out faster than expected, so I took a chance. 

Still a lot of fun to be had...and I suppose I'll get to focus more on digging for some deals.

Fun first day. 3 pickups. Got a signed hardcover of Maus from the CBLDF. My first planet and my first Schomburg. 

*Shout out to @Superworld for my first Schomburg.  Always a must visit booth for me at every C2E2 and WW Chicago.

Love your prices!  I grabbed a handful of books and just missed out on a nice mid grade Wolverine Limited 1 for $25.

I think I spent all of my money today at yours an Zapp's booth.  I'll make another round tomorrow and hopefully I'll see some more stuff that catches my eye.  Talked to Roy and Dale today which is always nice but was saddened to hear Harley is a no show.  Always fun to hear how things are going for the hardest working guy in the industry.

Nothing outstanding but some nice grabs from $5 boxes.  I think the X-Men 109, Thor 132 and the 2 Wolverine 1s was from Leroys booth.

Guess I missed you, Andrew.

I also picked up some nice copies from Leroy's booth; always a good place to stop.

Pictures of purchases tomorrow.

I have met the enemy and he is me.

Didn't realize how slowly I turned into a modern collector...at least at big shows.

This is the first big Con where my wife came with me so we did some cosplay as Jack and Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas so we became one of those aisle cloggers.  I did grab a nice mid grade X-Men 25 and a really nice high grade Walock 15 (love that Starlin cover) from Leroy.  I was busy having pictures taken but I did take a couple pics.
