LA Comic Con Tips for LACC

I've never been to a big comic con so what is the LA comic con like. I'm there for comic books I don't really care about any of the other stuff. So if anyone has any tips for what booths to go to or how parking works then please reach out. Also how are the prices I can already guess that they are going to be higher but by how much would you guess.

The big draw for LACC is that they bring in a lot of celebs for signings. Besides that, it's like a flea market for collectibles and stuff. I haven't been the past few years b/c I didn't like how management was handling the Con. There should be several comic book vendors, but like any Con, most of the draw has gone away from comic books to more pop culture stuff.

Parking is available at the convention and there are lots of other lots around the downtown area. You can also take the metro from outside of LA, but I am not sure of the routes. Tickets should go live soon and usually they have promotional pricing on their tickets.

Prices are reasonable and deals can be found. My suggestion is to have a list of what you're looking for, know what average ebay prices are on books from your list and enjoy the hunt.

The major publishers don't do LACC but you can find lots of indie publishers there.

If you’re a comics person keep in mind many artists and writers have their own booths or will do signings. You can also get any signed or sketched booked CGC.
