Welcome to Back Issues Comicon
Our Story
Founded by three friends for the love of comic books. Our first event was assembled in just under four months and happened on April 20, 2024 at the Christ Church Parish Hall at 61
Dundas Street in downtown Dartmouth.
Operating with a small budget and a lot of heart, we were able to fill 31 tables with vendors in just three days. These vendors carried all sorts of comic book and comic book collectibles. Products like comic books, comic magazines, comic digests, manga, graphic novels and collected trade paperbacks and hardcovers. There were comics available for sale from as far back as WWII and as recent as this year, including many key issues and first appearances.
Mission Statement
We strive to provide a safe and inclusive experience for comic book fans of all ages and preferences. A place for comic book collectors to find that special comic they need to finish a run, that key issue they've saved up for and couldn't find elsewhere, a chance to meet up and talk comics with like-minded fans
or a spot to meet comic creators to ask for signatures
on your favourite comic by them.
Comics aren't just for kids, they're for everyone!
