C2E2 March 22-24, 2019, It's Still Never Too Early or to late
austinhg replied to HOTFLIPS's topic in Comic Events
I usually only go for Artist Alley; so I'm not too keen on the panels and such, but here's some tips that I wish I would have known my first time: I've gone the last two years on Saturday only, and it seemed like Artist Alley got a lot less busy after ~12pm. Be prepared to wait in the CGC line if you're getting Signature Series books. All of the restaurants that aren't snack carts tend to sell out of food pretty quickly. Alcohol lines get longer as the day goes - if you want a beer you may want to get one earlier on. What @Raze said about portfolio boxes will save your life. I've also had comic store owners tell me to bungee cord a long box to one of those collapsible hand carts if you have a lot of books. I don't do this because I don't take a lot of books, but I always see people with carts full of books on the floor.- 119 replies

Under the "My Submissions" page on the website there should be a subheader saying "Submission Forms for CGC/CCS." Any of the links that say "Online Form" will take you to the online tool. Here's a direct link for posterity. (NOTE: You have to be logged into your account to use the web form.)

C2E2 March 22-24, 2019, It's Still Never Too Early or to late
austinhg replied to HOTFLIPS's topic in Comic Events
I guess the two I was most surprised to not be noted on social media were Babs Tarr, Stephanie Hans and Daniel Warren Johnson. But there were some other names I recognized that I'm sure have a lot of fans that would have at least showed up as comic guests: David Mack, Guillory, Elias Chatzoudis, and Sabine Rich. I know these people aren't Frank Miller/Jim Lee big, but they are recognizable names.- 119 replies

Did you look at the Artist Alley list? There were quite a few names on there that weren't under the "Comic Guests" section on their website that I was surprised weren't announced on social media.- 119 replies

The last Star Wars movie I watched was The Phantom Menace - at this point I'm too far behind to care about seeing any of them. Especially after reading what you all have to say about The Last Jedi.

I think Wolverine's sleeves are the #1 thing that bothers me. I can't even look at issue #2 without staring at his freaking bicep/sleeve.

Do they still send them out? I read in another thread that they stopped sending the signature series forms out.

2019 "THIS SET DOESN'T EXIST, PLEASE BUILD" REQUESTS
austinhg replied to RegistryAdministrator's topic in CGC Registry
I would like to request the following set be added: Motor Crush (with all variants) Thank you! -
Splash Page Art is his art rep. I believe. On their commission page I don't see him listed as taking commissions currently. Also, looks like his Twitter has a pinned tweet about how he's not taking commissions currently, but it is two years old...

Comunication problem with Cadence Comic Art
austinhg replied to Xouman's topic in Original Comic Art
I got a message from a board member on the 1st, essentially saying they were trying to clean up some of the miscommunicated orders. I also sent them an email today seeing if I could get an update, I didn't get a response, but after an hour or so I got an email from paypal with a tracking number. Can't wait for my page! -
When the Digital Copy Has Been Used
austinhg replied to Donald Jack's topic in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions
Welcome to the boards. This thread should answer all of your questions; I've quoted the most relevant reply for convenience. -
Creature from the Black Lagoon signed by Ricou Browning from Louisville Supercon. (I have to get the label fixed)

What was the best story of 2018 ?
austinhg replied to the authority's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
It follows a priest who is kind of washed up who gets assigned a new church in the town of Gideon Falls and a guy who lives in the city and thinks there is a conspiracy in the town's trash. The story follows the two of them separately as they encounter the legendary "Black Barn." It's definitely a horror book. I think in an interview Lemire said that is was inspired by Twin Peaks. I know I did kind of a bad job of describing the book, but I didn't want to give too much away in case you end up reading it. -

austinhg replied to the authority's topic in Modern Age Comic Books
Black Hammer has been amazing! The first part of Age of Doom was definitely my most recommended series this year. Gideon Falls has been pretty great too. -
Comunication problem with Cadence Comic Art
austinhg replied to Xouman's topic in Original Comic Art
No idea if they are on vacation myself, but I paid for a piece in early November and haven't received it yet. Sent them an email a month after payment and haven't heard back. -
Stephanie Hans' art is usually pretty great. You can see the first few pages on Image's website to see if you like it.

From what I understand the TPB, individual issues, and digital all release simultaneously. That's how TKO's twitter and a few articles read at least.

I think that's the new style of the holder. I had a photo sent in last year that had an error on the label and it came back with the binder rings on the side, and when I had it reholdered to fix the mistake it came in a holder like the ebay auction above. I'm not sure why they changed it up, I really liked having the binder rings.

Emi Lenox only had small paper this weekend at Louisville Supercon, so this San/Princess Mononoke ended up on the back of an All Star Batman sketch cover. I think it will look great in my son's Ghibli themed room. I

You should print out a label that says "From the Collection of Peter Laird."
