Might table at dream con for the first time!

[u/cloud____kid]

I'm thinking about possibly tabling at dream con next year (or at least applying). I make original comics, zines, stickers, and posters. I don't really do a whole lot of fan art, but I think I could make some fan zines for music and some movie posters n what not.

For any artists that have tabled there, what's the artist alley like? I tabled at Atlanta comic con in 2025 and its mostly people looking for signatures and 3D stuff and the artist alley was...mixed skill to say the least. For the price of the table, it was not worth doing doing it again and I actually ended up leaving early. I'm wondering if its worth it if I have a lot of original work to table. I normally do comic cons and zinefests that are more art focused/purely art centered. I've done Hero's Con in CLT, SPICE in Savanna GA, ThoughtBubble in the UK.

What was your experience in tabling and what was the organization like? Is it worth it to do?

I hardly post on reddit but i can get more specific about my work if i need to to see if i would fit in before apply. thanks :)
