MoCCA 2010 – Well Done

I feel the urge to write a “con-report”, but I dropped the ball more than usual this year: didn’t take any photos, and didn’t spend enough time walking around and checking out the show as I should have (not by a long shot). So, once again, despite the fact that I had a great time at the show, I’m seeing pics online of the comics and tables that other people took, and I’m wondering “How did I miss that??!”. For example, how did I manage to not get myself a copy of the wonderful looking Pood Comics #1? The comic on the cover of that looks great! Why did I miss it?

So, there’s not much I can add to the discussion about the show, except to say that it seemed Very Well Run. I griped about the organization of the show last year on the Ink Panthers podcast, so feel like I should formally acknowledge that I thought this year was a huge improvement and return to form. And, I thought having the show in the much cooler month of April worked out very well. The weather was pretty much perfect, and it felt like it was reflected in everybody’s good moods.

The only downside to shifting the show up a few months is that I keep thinking to myself “I had a great time at the con this last weekend… it sure is making me look forward to MoCCA this Summer… oh wait…”

    Hi Geoff, I will definitely be buying this when I see it in the comics shoppe. It’s really nice looking. I recall catching a glimpse of it under some people’s arms at the show here and there, but as I said, it didn’t occur to me to get out on the show floor and track it down, until a few days too late.
