If the stores that did it previously are doing it again this year, they would be:

- King's Comics (Town Hall)
- Kinokuniya (Town Hall)
- Phantom Zone (Parramatta and Chatswood - I know the Parramatta store is definitely doing this)

I believe the Parramatta one will be doing it, I just went today and they've got a poster of what will be available on the day in their door.

You plug Quality Comics and Ill plug Cosmic Comics in Rockingham (http://www.cosmic-comics.com.au/index.htm). I know they have a few things on but I cant remember. Last year they were packed out and this year should be the same again.

I'd shamelessly plug my own store but I don't think there's any other Bendigo region fans on this board. :p

We also have the Pre-Release for the new Magic TCG set on the same day so It'll be hectic.

Too far for me. At least Comsic Comics is just down the road from me (<5mins) plus they are cheap and I get 10% off anyway :D
