I attended the Baltimore Comic-Con on opening day, Friday, October 17th. This is a great show, and the first day is busy, but not overwhelmingly crowded. Some guests had extremely long lines (Alan Davis, Jeff Smith), but I got to chat with a lot of people, buy books, and try to convince people to donated their comic books to the Library of Congress.
