Castle Rain at BELL-Con 2

[ARGOTAKAR]

Castle Rain will be attending BELL-CON 2 in Bellingham, Washington on Saturday, September 27. The first show had over 1,500 attendees (we missed out on that one), and the second show looks even more promising with a larger venue. I will be running the booth, and hope to have newest issue of Jack: Ghosts # 2 on hand for the show.

I hope to see some of you there!

Yeah, I wish you guys could make it, too. I’ll let you know how it turns out.

Jack the Lantern: Ghosts # 2 will hit the stands on October 8th! ;D ;D

So how was the show

THE SHOW SUCKED!

They really dropped the ball on this show. They reported that they had over 2,000 attendees for this show, which was complete bull-shit. There couldn't have been more than 500-people at this show, and that's being generous. They split the dealers into two rooms--one being a long hallway, and the other a school theater. Horrible venue! Even basic fliers were never distributed to local stores? How does one fuck that one up!? I left with 2-hours left in the show.

I also found out from other dealers who did the first show that their numbers were greatly exaggerated, so they falsely advertised themselves from the get-go.

Except for seeing some good Seattle friends at the show, this was absolutely the worst Con I ever attended.

I'm glad nobody from the boards attended this show.

ouch, sorry to hear that.

Good news Jack hits the stands this week.
