Going To Puerto Rico In 2009 ?
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Comic Cons

 

Puerto Rico

ComicCon & Pop Culture Expo

May 2-3, 2009!

 

One of the great things about Comic Cons is the opportunity to get involved if you want to...

Whether it is to act as a volunteer at the event, or be part of the organizing, or just participate in the masquerade if it has one.

Of course it is also fun to just attend!

The Puerto Rico Comic Con & Pop Culture Expo doesn't happen until next May 2009, but these shows take a while to be put into place!

The Con organizers have set up a web site, a Facebook account, and started to get the word out about what to expect from their Con....

I will blog more this Comic Con and Pop Culture Expo as additional details come in...

The Announced Guest List so far includes:

Comic Book creator Mark Texeira

Anime Voice actor Vic Mignognay

Renee Witterstaetter Comic Book Editor and more! 

There is no mention on whether or not there are any panels or programs at this convention....

If you live on the island and have wanted to attend a comic convention, this could be the one to get you into the 'comics world' if you aren't already...

If you are going to Puerto Rico or neighboring islands during this time period, you might want to plan to stop in...

For those of you that are new to our blog today, we also have an ongoing 'Comics Show and Pop Culture Convention' ourselves here at "Make It So Marketing Inc.", what with our daily blog posts and new listings of items for sale in our online store!

Thanks for reading this blog post today, and please join us again for more!

Nothing For The Trick Or Treaters ?!
Mood:  quizzical
Topic: eBay Info

 

Then Try...

Trick Or Treat

 Comics 

For Halloween

October 31st, 2008!

 

It's nearing that time of year again...

Get ready for those Trick Or Treaters in your neighborhood!

As we have done in prior years, Tina and I are listing comics for 99 cents at auction or $1.00 at fixed price in our eBay Featured Store for this special day!

Why?  Instead of passing out candy to increase cavities... we suggest passing out a comic book to increase reading!

You can purchase these $1.00 fixed price listed comics right now and have them shipped to Your USA address (only) for $4.99 unlimited shipping!

So for example 5 comics @ $1.00 plus the $4.99 shipping would be $9.99 total for 5 comics which is an average cost of $1.998 each.

Or... 20 comics @ $1.00 each plus the $4.99 shipping would be $24.99 for an average cost of $1.2495 each!

Or 50 comics totalling $54.99 that would average $1.0998 each!

(Note: California buyers would have to add sales tax on any purchases!)

Depending on the trick or treaters' ages, (for age appropriateness), you could even use these for Halloween Party favors!

Just click on the top right comic book cover to see over 300 comics that are 99 cents on auction or $1.00 for buy it now listings!

No limit to how many of these can be shipped to an USA address.

Please Note: This is for comic books only; magazines, stickers, graphic novels, DVDs etc cannot be included in the $4.99 shipping 'special', AND this is for USA addresses only!

We will be adding more listings in the days to come, so check back with us!

These comics will be shipped USPS Priority mail, so allow enough time to get there after paying for them!

Thanks for reading this blog post today, and please join us again!

Boston Comic Con - November 2nd, 2008 !
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Comic Cons

 

Boston 

Comic Con 

November 2nd, 2008!

 

Yesterday I blogged about a Comic Con being held in Dublin, Ireland on the dates of November 22nd and 23rd of 2008.

A little closer to 'home' for our USA readers is the upcoming Boston Comic Con, which is being held Sunday, November 2nd, 2008.

This Comic Con is one day only at the Back Bay Events Center.

The Guest List includes:

Peter Laird, who is the co-creator of the TMNT (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

Berni Wrightson, who is the co-creator of DC Comics' Swamp Thing!

I have had the pleasure of seeing Berni Wrightson in person, and hearing him speak about his career in the comics industry.

There is no mention on whether or not there are any panels or programs at this one day con....

However, according to the press release, this one day con should be packed with even more 'tables' this convention versus the last Con.

Of course with dealer tables there should be plenty of toys and and other collectibles!

Plus new and old comic books! 

If you live near the Boston area, and have wanted to attend a comic convention, this one day affair could be the one to get you into the 'comics world' if you aren't already....

For those of you that are new to our blog today, we also have an ongoing 'Comics Show and Pop Culture Convention' ourselves here at "Make It So Marketing Inc.", what with our daily blog posts and new listings of items for sale in our online store!

Thanks for reading this blog post today, and please join us again for more!
