Con-tainment
Monday, March 17th, 2008On Friday night, Matt posted the fourth of his completed pages.Saturday morning, Jason got to work on finishing and assembling those pages into a printable PDF of a preview booklet.Saturday night, Bekah and I went to Kinkos to do some printing.They took the job and we were back at eight in the AM to pick up the results. It was strange to be up and active so early on a Sunday. Headed off to church? No, we were on our way to set up at Back Bay Events Center for the third Boston Comic Con.In all honesty, our room placement was pretty disappointing. A very small room off of the main hall with very little indication that there was any reason for guests to venture in. Those that did found tables manned by stalwart small pressers from The Boston Comics Roundtable. Those guys are great. They plainly just love comics.
Though our placement was pretty bad, the con was great. The people running it were nice, they even had people come around and take lunch orders! And the lunches were terrific!
We met a lot of great people who showed a lot of interest in the books we had there. If you are one of those people, please drop us a line and let us know what you think of the book.
But most of all, for us, this event was a way for us to test what we are going to be doing in New York next month. And, though not every single thing was successful, I think we learned what WILL work.
And so, on Sunday at around 5:20 pm, we staggered out of the convention and onto the Green Line. We did not break even, but we had a good time and we learned what we had set out to learn.
Success.
Now we have a plan for what needs to be done forIf you want to see us before then, and check out our final test-run, come on out to the next Primate Promotions show on April 13th.
After that, start spreadin’ the news, because we are heading down to New York.
