Went to @backissuescomicon.bsky.social (I mean, I gotta since it’s my show) and it was great. Lots of people, happy vendors, cool crowd, special guests that I am so appreciative of. I saw some people buying some sweet books. I was busy but managed to pick these up.

Cleaned this book up and gave it a press. It’s not drastic, but it does look much better now.

I would support purchases in any state that is actively resisting in an aggressive manner and reconsider travel to the US In those states only…for what it’s worth.

This is going to be so much fun!

Making a mess sorting through my show stock. I’m heading to @elsicon2025 this Saturday the 23rd from 10 to 5 at the Chief Young Eagle Recreation Centre on the Elsipogtog First Nation. Going to be a beautiful weekend, come for a day trip. I may even have a new project to talk about. Come find out!

Only bought a few comics on my trip. Still, I’m pretty okay with what I got.

A little promotional giveaway item that just arrived. These stickers will be available from @maritimecomicguy.bsky.social at #DCAF, #ElsiCon, and at #backissuescomicon on Saturday September 20th!

Our new poster for Back Issues Comicon September 20th in Dartmouth! With art by Brad Seymour and designed by Andrew Clark, it's a real head-turner! Our posters are printed and handouts are ready to hit comic shops and local events. Let us know when you see them by tagging us in your posts!

Elsi-con is a local indigenous comic convention outside of Miramichi, NB. They are putting on their inaugural event on August 23rd. I’ll be there to help them out in whatever manner I’m able. Check it out here: www.facebook.com/share/p/1FXf...

Our 4th Back Issues Comicon is coming up Saturday, September 20, 2025! The Parish Hall at 61 Dundas Street. Emails to previous vendors are imminent (coming very soon). Application is live on the website for potential NEW potential vendors if spaces are available.

The 2025 edition of Montreal Comiccon started one week ago. I’ve had time to reflect on it. The trip was an adventure. Things were not entirely smooth, but I think we did something special there. The show broke an attendance record, attendees, exhibitors & guests all had very nice things to say.

Pay attention. @heatherantos.bsky.social is giving someone an opening, be professional, be polite and be bold!

Was able to grab some signatures for a bunch of books this weekend. Also, it may have been as the show was closing and people were packing up, but I also managed to buy some comics.

Sorry, my photos from yesterday were minimal and mostly just my kids doing cool as shit things. 1- a bag my wife wants that was in my office 2- my youngest kid chatting with Jim Starlin while working with him 3- same kid after the line dies down 4- my oldest kid getting her picture with Steven Ogg

Some photos from my first day of @mtlcomiccon.bsky.social

Me and the crew heading to the malt shop to get some egg creams from the soda jerk.

Two weeks away from @montrealcomiccon.com www.citynetmagazine.com/montreal-com...

Are you ready for East Coast Comic Expo this coming weekend in Moncton, NB? Hope to see you there Friday night and all day Saturday, but… @montrealcomiccon.com is in just three weeks! So, in honour of my first #montrealcomiccon as Comic Guest Coordinator, I changed my watch face in anticipation. :)

Alan Tudyk is a treasure that must be protected. He must be smuggled to safety in Canada.

Picked up a couple of new Captain Canuck T-shirts yesterday. Looked around for these for a few weeks.

Jamie and I like to guess what each new Jeopardy player does for a living. It’s a fun side game for us. There are a large number of lawyers, teachers and librarians that come through the Alex Trebek stage. This is the first time “Leader of the X-Men” came up.

Is Benson Boone just Logan Paul in a wig, a ‘stache and athleisure wear?

Is Benson Boone just Daniel Radcliffe in half a disguise?

Attention professional comic creators! We’re coming down to the wire on industry pro comic guest spaces for @montrealcomiccon.com but there is still some time left. Visit: forms.office.com/r/yiC0iQXEBf to fill out the form to apply for Montreal, Ottawa, Winnipeg or Quebec City. #comics #montreal

In case you were wondering, @northofnorthshow.bsky.social on CBC is a hidden gem with a pretty killer soundtrack.

Applications are still open. Confirmation emails will be rolling out over the next couple of weeks.

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.

Hey comic creators! Looking to increase your Canadian events while decreasing ones…elsewhere? We have a new pro creator application form on our website. Spaces are unfortunately limited. Just go to www.montrealcomiccon.com then under the Exhibition Hall tab you’ll find the creator application form.

This Saturday. Please share it around!

We are 1 WEEK out from the 3rd Back Issues Comicon! Our 5th and final guest is a brilliant writer and well known for his work on IRON FIST, BATMAN, GHOST RIDER, PREDATOR, THE DISPLACED and recent titles: SILVERHAWKS & THUNDERCATS: LOST! Please roll out the welcome mat for the inimitable Ed Brisson!

Updated venue map. List of vendors on Friday! We are just 10 days away! Please share the event with your friends. We’ll have dozens of vendors with comics of all types and golden age to modern age eras, comic collectibles, art, games, dice, cards and so much more!

Our next guest is a verifiable comic legend. The patriarch of the maritime comic community, the original artist on the MEN IN BLACK and publisher of DARK COAST (Dark Coast issue 2's official mainland launch is at our show Saturday April 5th). Please welcome Sandstone Comics' own, Sandy Carruthers!

Our next guest is another towering figure in the comics community, literally. An artist and writer, his comic ADAM (“in any other story, he’d be the bad guy”) boldly claims to be the Maritimes #1 comic book. Come pick up a copy and see for yourself. Please welcome comic creator, Andrew Clark!

We are exactly TWO weeks from our 3rd Back Issues event and we are starting our announcements off with a big one (yes, he's tall)! Our first comic guest is currently writing The Avengers AND the X-Men. He redefined Black Cat and Moon Knight for a new generation. He is...Jed MacKay!

New convention added: Back Issues Comicon 2025 @backissuescomicon.bsky.social April 5, 2025 A comic convention in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

A mock cover I did for a local show, @backissuescomicon.bsky.social

Our new poster is a clever cover by @andrewclarkis.bsky.social! Please LIKE to give Andrew some love! You'll start seeing these 11x17 posters (and/or some smaller mini-posters) at the finest comic shops across the maritimes as they make their pilgrimmage to your local comic book mecca!

The new season of Daredevil is absolutely killing it in the first two episodes.

I was watching Pop Culture Jeopardy and they credited this dude with SNKK instead of SNIKT as the sound Wolverine’s claws make when they come out. Apparently, someone got the sound effect wrong or went rogue in a few comics over 50 years and it was enough. I’m irrationally incensed. haha

Our new added space is, big, airy with big windows and tall ceilings. It also has room to add a few more tables…so we are! We are, however, almost full despite that, so if you want in on this event (the 3rd one now) I’d act quickly. Acceptance emails start in 1 week. www.surveymonkey.com/r/WDY7NC2
