It would be great to be able to meet Joe, but I'm not really into
comics;
I don't know how much interest the rest of the convention would be
have.
And as great as it would be to be able to meet Joe, I don't know if
it's
worth driving 1,400 miles (round trip) and paying however much the
convention fee is, for just that.

I'm with you. I wouldn't cross the street to meet me. I've always
found me very over-rated.
