Hey all.....it's convention time again.

Any members going to Wonder-Con this year?

I'll be hitting the booths and getting autographs from past Valiant writers and artists.

Let me know if you plan on going.

Wonder-con..........defin. a mixed up show.

going to SDCC makes this show look like it's ugly sister.

I wondered into the con with my SDCC Valiant shirt on and ready to buy.

The usual "oh.....I left my Valiants at home" was my normal response.

Things of note.

Things I didn't see AT ALL...

Unity Red
VVSS (any of them)
Gold issues (Deathmate doesn't count to me on this)
Harbinger #0 pink
Magnus #0
Bloodshot #0 Plat...

Shadowman #2 Good bad ugly...
Rai #4
CEAR
Solar #10 1st or 2nd
Last issue's (found one of them more on that later)

I DID find....

Lots of Turok #1

Pre-unity issues in the $5-15 area.
Rai set #1-33 $100
Quantum & Woody set #1-21 & 32 $75.00

Harbinger #1 $60
Solar #1's $10-14 depending on dealer
Magnus #1's $10-16 depending on dealer
Rai #1's $10-12 depending on dealer
X-O #1 $10-14 depending on dealer
ONLY 2 CGC Valiants I noticed
Magnus #5 9.6 $12.00 (bought it)
X-O #6 9.6 $10.00 (duh- bought it)
Shadowman (VH-3) #2 $10-15 depending on dealer
Shadowman (VH-3) #5 $15 at 3 different tables
Unity 2000 #1 $8.00
Rai #3 (I bought the only copy of this book at the show)
Bloodshot #51 $15.00 the only LAST issue at the show

I bought the following for .75 cents each at show after some serious digging
Troublemakers #13 & 15
Sliders #1
Rai #0 & 8
Concrete Jungle B&W retailer preview & regular #1
Shadowman (VH-2) #1 reg. cover
Freemind (future) #0 Dynamic Force cover
Captain Johner #2
Operation Stormbreaker
Bloodshot (vh-2) #1 reg. cover
X-O Manowar FAN (2 copies)
Ninjak (vh-2) #11-12
Trinity Angels #1 painted, #7, 9, 12
Quantum & Woody #5, 7, 10
Eternal Warriors: Time & Trech reg. cover

Overall a weak show....NOT one piece of Valiant ART was at the show and I asked all the art dealers.

Sorry to report no REAL Valiant BUZZ at Wonder-Con this year.....

Sorry Trent NO Solar statue's were at the show.

I asked everyone that had statues they DON'T have ANY.

This item could be very hard to get.

Hmm... I actually only went to Wondercon for 1 Day this year... but in that large area where the guy had complete sets all spread out over his tables... If you went to the middle of his stash, he had at least a hundred Pre-Unity Valiants there.

Harbinger 1s, Solar 10s, Last issues. I picked up some last issues, a Harbinger 1, and some others including a Rai 4. (Didn't bother with most of the pre-Unity books since I have dozens of each generally.) He even had a bunch of Valiant Voices.

He was also selling full runs of most of the Valiant series bundled together.
