It's usually a fun show with lots of artists doing sketches and lots of vendors with varied merchandise from cards to comics to just about anything else 'fannish.'
Let me know if you might be coming by. I'll also have FREE promo cards for LOST, Smallville 4, Star Trek TOS Art and Images, and more. Unfortunately, Artbox is too tight to send promos to give away at shows like this or maybe I'd have some GoF promos too...
