Media Release -- In addition to the great line-up of guests for this year's Baltimore Comic-Con, we are very pleased to have more than 100 retailers also attending the show, which will be taking place the weekend of September 8-9, 2012.
Looking for those few missing back issues to round out a collection? Trying to track down that hard-to-find collectible? Well, look no further! From the Golden Age to the Modern Age, and everything in between, fans can find what they are looking for in the dealer section of the show floor. Vintage comics, apparel, toys, trade paperbacks, and hardcover collections are just a few of the types of items that are available from a great selection of retailers and exhibitors.
With more than 100 retailers setting up on the show floor, many of which specialize in Golden, Silver, and Bronze Age comics, the Baltimore Comic-Con always has more classic books than any other show in the country. From Golden and Silver Age Keys to those more obscure classics, collectors are sure to find something they're looking for!
"Each year at our show, we really strive to offer something for every type of collector - whether it be Golden and Silver Age comics, manga, original art, or merchandise," said Marc Nathan, show promoter of the Baltimore Comic-Con.
