Hi everyone. Back Issues Comicon was over two weeks ago. We’ve had time to talk to vendors and attendees alike. The overwhelming, positive feedback about these shows is incredibly heartwarming.
So to everyone who attended, to every vendor and every individual who helped get the word out: THANK YOU!

Loved the event last weekend. It was the 3rd @backissuescomicon.bsky.social to take place and not only was it fun, packed with great comics, collectibles and art, but it was double the size of the previous two events!
Were you there? Give Back Issue a follow and I hope to see you at the next one.
