Grit City Comic Show in Tacoma, Washington November 9, 2024

Dark Horse Comics #1 cover with young FitzChivalry Farseer depicted

On November 9, 2024, I will be at the Tacoma Convention Center for Grit City Comic Show!   This is a one day show, so don't delay! This comic show is unique to Tacoma and one of my favorites to attend. It's very affordable and very family friendly.  Tickets on line are $10, but kids ten and under get in for free with a paying adult!  Tickets at the door will be $15. The convention will be open from 10 AM to 5 PM.  It will be a warm, dry family break from our current bout of windy, rainy weather!

 

In addition to comics, books and conventional (and unconventional) convention merchandise, there will be cosplay, and an amazing Lego display.  Gaming will be going on as well, with a unique Santa versus Crampus game offered.

 

For me, this will be the first time I actually have a table in Artists Alley, and I will be selling copies of the first six issues of the Dark Horse Comics adaptation of Assassin's Apprentice.  I will also have a few copies of the Volume One Graphic Novel of Assassin's Apprentice. 

 

In addition, I will be raiding my storage unit to offer Megan Lindholm's urban fantasy set in Seattle:  Wizard of the Pigeons in hardback with illustrations by Tommy Arnold.  Other yet-to-be-chosen items from my storage unit will also be offered, including editions of Robin Hobb and Megan Lindholm books that are First Editions, out-of-print, and hard to find.  Those will be in very limited supply.  All sales will be cash only. 

 

I will hope to see you there!

 

But, if Tacoma is too far of a drive for you, I want to remind you that The Signed Page is celebrating its 25th Anniversary with a 25% off sale on lovely autographed editions by many best-selling authors (including Robin Hobb!)  The Signed Page is a wonderful site for bibliophiles and collectors, ensuring that every item you order is shipped to you and arrives in pristine condition.
