PARKING
There is a $15 parking fee to park at the Grady Cole Center.
PARKING INCENTIVE
To soften the sting of the parking charge, we ask that you bring your parking receipt inside to the Heroes Aren’t Hard to Find booth, where we will exchange your parking receipt for items worth AT LEAST $15-$20!
We recommend carpooling, or taking a Lyft or an Uber, but you might also consider taking advantage of the Light Rail CityLynx Gold Line. There is a walkable stop located at CPCC: See More Info About the Gold Line Here
The Grady Cole Center is a old building, with lots of local history attached! The one down-side to that history is that there are five steps, and no ramps to the entrance of the building. If you need ADA accessibility, please let the attendant at the entrance to the back of the building know that you require ADA access.
We look forward to seeing you at the Charlotte Mini-Con!!
You can see a full list of Artists, Exhibitors and Featured Guests – as well as maps of the upper and lower floors on our website: https://www.heroesonline.com/CLT-Mini-Con/

From Shelton Drum:
“I have offered a pull and hold service for almost 50 years. I started holding subscriptions 5 years before I opened Heroes as a brick-and-mortar! Most comics back then were 40 cents. Today, $2.99 is the lowest price for a new comic (there are only a few), most are $4-$8 with special issues costing as much as $10-$12. The math is vastly different than when I started.
I really can’t afford to “hold” inventory past the promised time frame.
I’ve been lenient with the rules for a long time, but I cannot continue with the new realities of net cost on comic books. The rules on the Reserve Customer Agreement will be strictly enforced beginning in January 2025. I will be sending you an invoice this month in hopes you will bring your account up to date, and we can start fresh in January. Ideally, we would love to see you every week!
Going forward, you will receive an invoice if you have anything that has been on hold for 30 days. As per the agreement you signed when starting your account, you will have 48 hours to pick up all of your comics, or pay the invoice online. We will hold “paid comics” for you until you come to pick up or ask us to ship them to you.
Thank you for shopping with Heroes Aren’t Hard to Find! Some you have been for over 40 years and I’m very proud of that and forever grateful! Let’s go for at least another 40!”

CHANGES GOING FORWARD:
PLEASE PROVIDE A DETAILED LIST OF TITLES YOU WOULD LIKE TO RESERVE. If you have a preference on open order covers please notate that as well. Ratio variants are first come, first served and sold at a net price. *Nothing is guaranteed to be held for you if it is not specifically on your list.
IF YOU HAVE NOT COLLECTED YOUR RESERVE FOR 30 DAYS, A TOTAL INVOICE WILL BE SENT TO THE PROVIDED E-MAIL ADDRESS. *If arrangements to satisfy the invoice are not made within 48 hours, items from your Reserve Bag will go back on the rack for sale and your Reserve Bag will be discontinued.
CONTINUED FAILURE TO CLEAR RESERVE WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION OF RESERVE BAG.

We will have staff on hand to help navigate the proceedings. As in years past, taking multiple copies of Free Comic Day issues will be prohibited. We’re happy to have Free Comic Book Day back again, but we also want to make sure we have comics available for as many customers as possible.
Free Comic Book Day will be lots of fun for everyone, and a great way to kick off HeroesCon season!
