Meet the Founders – Shape the Future of the Cartel
All three founders of Collector Cartel™ will be at the event, and we want to hear from you.
Come say "Hi". Talk comics. Drop off your books for grading. Grab some exclusive art. But more than anything, tell us what’s missing from the collecting community. Your input helps shape the next wave of services, events, and products we bring to life.
This Isn’t Just a Convention. It’s a Cartel Takeover.
Thought Bubble is a celebration of creativity, fandom, and the stories we love. With the Collector Cartel™ community taking centre stage, this is more than a weekend event, it’s a movement.
Mark your calendars for November 15–16. Pack your books. Charge your phone. And get ready to be part of something epic.
