Yesterday was the final show for me before Virginia Vintage (the Richmond show is this Sunday), the Charlotte Comicon. Attendance was strong but sales were modest. But I did acquire some great comics (via trade) for the Vintage show and was able to sell the last of the vendor tables.

In talking to retailers and show vendors over the last month, just about everyone feels like 2009 was the bottom and sales are holding steady, if not showing a slight uptick.
