What I Did on my Trip to Vegas

Remember when Dave went to Las Vegas a few weeks ago? Well, even if you didn’t know he was gone, the following is what the event was about:

Based on an article from ICv2.com

ComicsPRO, the comic retailer organization formed in 2005, held its first trade event in Las Vegas this April, with about 60 retailers from 45 companies attending. The attending companies represented around 70 storefronts, also around half of the 140 to 150 storefronts owned by the ComicsPro member companies.

On the first day, the organization conducted its internal business; the second was devoted to roundtables, meetings with suppliers, and reviewing demos of POS systems.

DC, Diamond/Alliance, WizKids, Virgin, and IDW were sponsors of the event. Image, Dark Horse, Dynamite, and Marvel also contributed.
