Unfortunately, it looks like my home state of Iowa is getting snubbed. I’m sure the guys at Mayhem in Ames or Daydreams in Iowa City would be thrilled to be part of it. And yet, they’re gonna be at Space Cat here in San Jose, which is a fairly ghetto cross between a comic shop and a pawn shop. For more info on the House of Ideas’ 70th Anniversary, head over to the official site.
