There are dozens of comic book conventions every year, so how do artists know which ones to table at? I’m documenting my experiences in hopes that they will help answer that question for others.

In this episode, I set up at a convention in my hometown of Wilmington, NC. Last year, the show was amazing with high attendance and even higher spending. Would that carry over to this year’s show?

Stick around and see how my experience was. And if you table at your local shows, let me know what your experiences are.

Thank you for watching!
