So Brent Spiner has been added which is pretty cool.

Also Colorado Springs is getting another con called the Colorado Cosmic Con. So far Sgt Slaughter and a few power rangers have confirmed.....crazy Colorado went from only having StarFest, small sci-fi convention to 3 other cons within a few years.

You get more cons when hundreds of thousands of people move to your state I guess.

So I have a dilemma and figured this might be the best place to ask it.
I have enough for all the autographs below but that doesn't include any food I may get, art, cards, pops, and other merch. So thinking about whittling down who I'll get autographs from to open up a lil more cash for other things.
Stan Lee is a given for getting, he cancelled last time and let's face it the man won't live forever. His is $100 though so big chunk.

Below is who I was planning on getting:

Gotham cast: Morena Baccarin, Carmen Bicondova, Robin Lord Taylor, Sean Pertwee, and David Mazouz.($40 each/$50 Morena)
Honestly if I get them it's all or nothing as its a Promo poster for show I'd be getting signed.

John Barrowman ($40)
Brent Spiner ($50)
Cary Elwes ($50)
John Rhys Davies ($40)
Karl Urban ($55)
Lena Headey ($60)
Clark Gregg ($65)
Hayley Atwell ($60)

Any suggestions for who to eliminate, you can pm me as not to clutter thread up too much if needed. Any replies are appreciated

well i would get the gotham cast since a promo poster and would look really nice. I also believe the show will go 4 or 5 seasons.

I would also get Headey, greg clark, urban, and stan Lee..

That way you have an extra 400 dollars to spend on something else. Since I assume you want to eat a nice meal while your out there and maybe buy some merch.

Also Some of the people I named I would personally rather get two or three items signed before spending the money on others.

Me personally I think Atwell is overpriced but hey maybe its because I didnt like agent Carter and i have already seen the pilot for her new shot conviction. I would be shocked if it makes it to a second season.

unless money isnt a problem. I normally stick to 3 to 5 people I go for. Even sometimes doubling up.

Sorry to announce that the queen of cancellations, Morena Baccarin, has canceled her appearance as of today. If anyone has paid me for her, I will give you your refund soon enough. At least no one is surprised.

Baccarin is still scheduled to be at the Florida Supercon as of now (though I'm not confident she will actually show up at this point). I've got a friend that I use a lot for Florida con autos that will get any auto for cost of the auto, shipping there and back and only $5- 10 on top of the auto cost. If you search on Facebook his name is Signature Service, he does a great job and will be at the con if anybody wants to try their luck for Baccarin again.

Are you ecstatic at $90 for Sunday only? I'm not sure how I feel about that yet.

Bummed is the word I used about no Penguin as well.

Holy crap $90 for Jeffrey Dean Morgan? I've paid less for much bigger stars, that's way too much. Robin Lord Taylor has been to a couple cons by me recently and he couldn't be a nicer guy. If he cancelled he had to have something change with filming or something.

I hear ya. He's clearly taking advantage of the Negan. I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a new normal for him (maybe not $90, but call it $75 ish) because of TWD's popularity and the fact that he's about to have a regular role in one of the most popular shows in the world.

I think because it was such short notice, the Denver con probably had to overpay him to get him this weekend.

That's a great point about being short notice. After having a couple cancellations I bet they had to scramble to add somebody to make up for it.

I will give our little Denver con credit for that. They typically go out and get someone to replace the cancellations that's on par with the guest that canceled. Carrie Fisher cancels, Lena Headey is announced. Robin Lord Taylor cancels, Jeffrey Dean Morgan is announced. I don't like the price, but I'll probably pay it like a sucker because I'm thinking JDM is going to be a tough signature once the new season starts in the fall. I'll pay it too because I really like TWD.

I'm contemplating it but it means I'll likely have to give up Spiner and Gregg.

or suppose I could throw up a card or two for sale lol

And yeah they do make up for cancellations quite nicely.

There will be 2 card dealers this year at the Denver Comic Con:

K&J Nonsport Cards

And, me, Scifi Cards IN BOOTH 700!

I know I have made special arrangements to have both Walking Dead and Dr Who on hand at the show. So I should have all the newest cards in hand for those who are looking for cards in addition to the autographs.

I'm glad I got her at Women of Sci-Fi back before she started Homeland. She's cancelled every show near me since then.
