Overall, SDCC was an "average" show for me - I came home under budget and with less books than I normally would, despite the availability of more material than usual, because pricing was too high IMHO.
Still, lots of old (and new) friends, enjoyed chatting with several Boardies, plus some excellent food, so a good time was definitely had!
