Ungraded copies usually sell in the $80+ range.

They have already been reprinted in TP format.

Anyone else have the Joe Special? It is fairly hard to find even on ebay.

Signatures do change over time. It shouldn't matter if its a pen or marker, loops and sharp crisp marks should still remain the same. Just look at the J in Jack. The bottom loop (furthest bottom point to the left) comes in on the bottom but goes out on the pen auto. The loop for the top of the J on the pen auto starts in the middle with a straight crisp line that comes to a point and then goes up, the marker is a loop right from the start. Kirby using a marker or pen shouldn't make that drastic of a difference on those 2 autographs. There are other big differences. I am not saying that they are not both authentic but I am saying that it will be tough for anyone to tell which autographs are authentic because there is no certified witness. The other side of the arguement is the similarities. There are some so do one look at the similarities or the differences? Great topic collectingstanlee, I enjoy reading all the comments on both sides of the discussion.

On the two pieces pictured there are a lot of differences in the two signatures (or it looks that way in the scans). I love the look of the first one, awesome picture and the autographs really standout.

So how would you know which is authentic? Unless you original obtained one yourself or if there is some Kirby authentic items available comparing one to your first one would really be pointless as the first one could still be fake. In sportscards there are certain companies (PSA for example) who will say if an autograph is authentic even from deceased athletes or those who decide not to sign for big companies. These are not 100% safe as there are still room for error and it is mostly a judgement call however at least those companies have old contracts and stuff which they use to compare. It would be a great thing for CGC to start doing. If I could get a Kirby signature that I knew to be 100% authentic then I would jump at it. I would expect it tocost at least what a Frazetta SS would or maybe even more. The problem there is that the Frazetta can be on whatever book you choose plus it will be cgc ss authentic certified by a witness.

Great covers, I especially love Archie ghoul and alien covers.

Beautiful covers, Duck covers are always so great to look at, really vivid colors.

Hmmmm, I wonder what he is going to do with that?

Archie or Conan

WOW, 9.8

Which issues are printed in this book?

I have mine ordered, can't wait to get it. I have the regular Omnibus #1 (not signed, but I do have the Invincible #1 signed omnibus (yeah).

Anyone buying the new Omnibus 2? Sorry if this was already asked.

Anyone going to buy the New issue when ToddMac jumps back on?

So many fantasic covers.

It was a Retailer incentive comic, there is also a signed version (yes TODD MAC). There are several listed on ebay (unsigned version) and they usually sell for $80-90. http://cgi.ebay.ca/Spawn-1-Black-and-White-Edition-Image-McFarlane_W0QQitemZ150287190894QQihZ005QQcategoryZ17079QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247 http://cgi.ebay.ca/Spawn-1-Black-White-Edition-CGC-9-6-White-Pages_W0QQitemZ180209846513QQihZ008QQcategoryZ17079QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247 Ended items http://cgi.ebay.ca/Spawn-1-Rare-Black-White-Variant-Mcfarlane-RRP_W0QQitemZ300254176709QQihZ020QQcategoryZ17079QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.ca/SPAWN-1-RARE-BLACK-AND-WHITE-VARIANT_W0QQitemZ280260725072QQihZ018QQcategoryZ17079QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Variant?
