WWCC2011

Our first official Comic Con came and went and overall I think it went well! I will admit I was kind of shocked that no publishers were there besides Top Cow. But I guess it’s become more of a toy fair / B list celebrity convention over the years. Seems like C2E2 has become Chicago’s more “legit” COMIC convention.

 Anyway, we manged to sell just under 100 copies of the first issue to complete strangers as absolute “nobodies” in the business. For our first time out – I’ll take it… especially when 3 of the big dog comic shops in Chicago agree to stock the issue as well!

I’m just glad we had the deadline to keep us all motivated and actually produce the thing!
