Little Giant Comics
Old School Comic Show
- April 11, 2026 -

I remember in the late '70's and early '80's, my father would take me to comic book shows in Philly. There was nothing but COMIC BOOKS & ARTISTS as far as the eye could see!! Nothing to get in the way of the thrill of the hunt! No movie stars, no wrestlers, no retired sports figures. These days shows have morphed into Pop Culture shows. They bring in voice actors, movie stars, cosplay parades, vendors selling Funko Pops and Plushies & knick-knack/patty-whacks. Personally, I prefer not to have to navigate through fake Legos and flea market fodder to get to my comic books! I just want to buy comic books and meet some great creators! Plus, it's high time that the ARTISTS & CREATORS get top billing!! After all, they are the ones that created the culture we love so much! This show is about them!! And the magic they create!!

A Giant for a Giant:

For 2026, the Little Giant Comics Old School Comic Show is honored to dedicate our event to Jim Shooter — legendary writer, editor, and longtime friend of our show. Jim has been more than a guest; he’s been part of our extended family, returning year after year to share his wit, wisdom, and unmatched storytelling with fans.
His influence on the comic book industry is immeasurable, from his groundbreaking work at Marvel to the many worlds and characters he’s brought to life. This dedication is our way of saying thank you for the memories, the inspiration, and the lasting imprint he’s left on both the comics we love and the community we’ve built together.

What is an "Old School" Comic Show?

Do you remember real COMIC BOOK shows from back in the day? With nothing but COMIC BOOKS and COMIC BOOK ARTISTS as far as the eye could see? Nothing to get in the way of the thrill of the hunt? No Movie Stars, or Wrestlers or Sports stars. Don't get us wrong, we love a good POP CULTURE CON, but we prefer not to have to navigate through FAKE LEGOS, Tables of T-Shirts & Flea Market Fodder to get to our COMIC BOOKS! We just want COMIC BOOKS, COMIC BOOK ART & COMIC BOOK ARTISTS! Also, we think it's high time that the COMIC ARTIST gets top billing... They're the ones who've created this culture we love so much! This show is about them and the magic they create!

Countdown to the Old School Comic Show:

You are only this far away to TONS of comics, artists and art!
