  1. I might make it down for the show, as it's looking better than Planet this year. Regardless, is anyone accepting subs?
  2. I know he doesn't do CGC, but I thought this might still be of interest given that he rarely makes appearances... https://www.fanfairenyc.com/guests
  3. Originally, I liked the first print but then I found this cover and liked it more than the first print. It's just a really nice image.
  4. I probably should have checked in a week ago, but if any of these are available,
  5. Time for the collective face palm! I've got a couple of books that I would love to get done at SDCC but I only found out today that one of the creators would be attending. Steve Niles announced on his Facebook page that he would be there. I would like to get a couple of books signed and CGC'd by him and Kelley Jones. I know the show is next week but I can overnight books on Monday if someone can help. A second option would be to have someone pick up the books I'm hoping to get done and take them. I know it's not easy and I don't expect it to be free but if you can help, please let me know!
  6. Still looking for Sam Kieth or a direct contact. It's a weird situation...
  7. Generally, the special guests are available for signings. They're not quite as available as most creators who maintain a booth at the show, but still available.
  8. I hate to be that guy, but I've got a couple of sketch requests for HeroesCon. Speaking from experience, fulfilling sketch requests is more than a minor pain in the posterior, so yes, I know what I'm asking. I don't think that either artist that I'm hoping to get will be particularly tough to get, they just don't do a ton of shows. I've got a Black Badge for Matt Kindt and would like to get a Spirit sketch from Joe Staton. To seriously raise the PITA status, I'd like to get the sketches CGC'd as well. If anyone can help, please shoot me a PM and we can work out the details. Thank you!
  9. I was very surprised to see that this is a one of a kind. I thought it was a fun cover, but then most of the covers to this series were fun...
  10. Is anyone accepting subs for the Toronto Comic Art Festival? Bill Griffith will be attending.
  11. You're clearly in over your head, send them to me and I'll see what I can do for you. Seriously, though, I guarantee that there is interest in these. I am certainly interested in one, possibly more if there are different books signed. Unfortunately, value is tough to determine. I've picked up a couple through the years. One for about $65 and another for closer to $150 (my memory is shaky due to TBI, no joke) and I was happy to spend it each time. I wish I had more info for you but his signature is so rare, there is no real guide to use for pricing. Just looking at eBay, prices range from $200 and $350, up to $611. There is a letter listed for $450 and an album cover for $100,000. I have doubts that either will sell, but they are out there. I wrote Mr. Ditko several times through the years and he always responded. I have missed seeing letters arrive with only "S.D." or "Ditko" above his New York address. He was a huge mystery to me, but I always enjoyed his art and his responses to my letters, including one about the difference between holding oneself to high standards and just being stubborn. I figured if anyone would have insight to that subject, he was the man! It wasn't a veiled attempt to get him to explain his philosophy, but rather I was seeking advice. Friends and family insisted that I was being stubborn on a particular subject but I saw it differently. My first letter was a request for a signature on my Marvel Masterworks Spider-Man volume and he politely refused, explaining that he didn't have the time for such a thing in a full page, handwritten letter that he signed. That would have been roughly the time that he signed these for you, sometime around 1992 or 1993, as Defiant was launching. Whatever you decide, I wish you luck. Keep me in mind when it comes time to sell!
  12. Is anyone attending Walker Stalker London or maybe Berlin? If so, shoot me a PM! Thanks!
