we love comics... just like you
We'll drive six hours to get that Marvel Grail eluding us since trading it in 1980. We'll buy five copies of the same book... just 'cause. We're avid collectors and marketers, but there are some books off limits - the ones we'll pass onto the next generation. We've been waiting for a true comic book show designed for the comic book reader, trader, collector, buyer, and dealer. If you're like us, Empire Comic Fest is the show you've been waiting for too.
