We went today, and I got to see Jim Warden (twice in 8
days), Fred Chamberlain, and Roger Ash. I put an album
together on facebook, so I will simply add a link and
hope that's ok. Hopefully others who went can share
their pics here too.

Cool! Thanks for sharing, Ted. My friends went to Baltimore this past weekend for a wedding, and I suggested the show to them, but their schedules wouldn't allow for it.

Hey Ted, Some nice pictures there. Had a nice talk with Tom Defalco on the weekend, Joe's (Staton) name was mentioned a few times during our conversation. Hope to meet Joe someday soon.

Glad to see you had a good time, Ted!

First time i could not go to Baltimore this year, and i missed seeing you guys: Ted, Fred, Jose...and a bunch of other fans and creators that are usually there. ;)
I could have used the distraction with everything that's happening right now, but it did not work out that way. Maybe next year.

Anyway, thanks to not going (hotel, plane and such...), i now have put aside almost enough for my 1st commission by JB! :)  So not a bad trade if i can get there...

Thanks, Guys, and congratulations, Paul (French). I
hope you get your commission shortly.

Nice pics!

We went to the BCC in 2013. Haven't made it the last couple of years. Maybe in 2016.

I went Saturday. I met John Ostrander,who had no line at all,shook his hand and gushed about how much I enjoyed his "Spectre" series. I think I pretty much babbled some more about it to which he thanked me and commented how he was very pleased with that series and that I enjoyed it so much. I thanked him for his time and moved on.I decided I wasn't going to talk to anybody else that day for fear of looking & sounding like an idiot. That was the highlight of my day.

Looks like it was Fred and Ted's excellent adventure at BCC. Maybe a road trip for me next year.

Baltimore is my favorite show. Not only due to the
overall atmosphere, but also largely due to the memories
of moments with friends and an awesome new collection of
moments with each new year.

Great, as always, to see JFB members there.

Connecting with artists and writers is fun and Joe &
Hilarie Staton are warm and friendly/charming every time
I see them. Very gracious and helpful to the Barrows
family, who were sitting beside them a few years ago,
which I'll always appreciate... plus Joe was recognized
at the Hasrveys, for a 3rd year in a row, for his work on
Dick Tracy!

The chance to breathe the same air (I generally feel weird saying “meet” since I never seem to have anything to say to these guys) as John Ostrander was what prompted to go ahead and go this year. Original plan was to skip this one. But all in all it was a good time. Among other nice moments, always nice to see Fred, chipped away at my Marvel Western list thanks to Dave Pruitt, I learned a valuable life lesson by paying the $30 for the Neal Adams signature on Avengers #93 that sticker shock kept me from paying $10 for a few years back, heard about Tom Palmer’s first Marvel job, learned why Russ Heath prefers war books (“who can draw rubble wrong?”), got to be the first person to thank Walter Simonson for following up on the Manhunter 2070 cliffhanger from Showcase #93 in Judas Coin, completed my run of the original Silver Surfer series, and, thanks to a well-placed $3 box, got the run of Marvel Collectors’ Item Classics and a bunch of Marvel Tales, thus completing several late 60s Marvel checklists. Good times…
