    I'd be okay with keeping the yellow label and adding somewhere a A (Authenticated) or W (Witnessed) to it. Any yellow label without those two letters would be understood to be pre-authentication service books. I'm not at all against a different color though if that's what they go with. Just glad they're finally getting on board.

     

    I like this idea. I would add a colour coding as well (or cross hatching). I am not much of an eBay buyer but it would be nice if they were easy to distinguish in photos.

  2. As someone that has been going to Canada Fan Expo for years and is becoming less and less interested in what they have to offer I ask 'has anyone been to both Canada Fan Expo and Baltimore Comiccon?' Are they as different as they feel to be on the boards with Baltimore being much more comic based and Toronto a disorganized mess?

  3. I will be transparent here in that I am looking to buy this book. The last few years I have had fun buying (not a lot, just dabbled) and exploring the comic art market. I have always wanted a The Batman Adventures #12 though so I started doing a little research. The first thing I will say is the market seems to have really changed in a few years with prices, for the most part, dropping or stagnating. This forum has been really valuable in understanding the trends overall (thank you everyone)!

    When looking at the prices of The Batman Adventures I am struck by something odd within GoCollect. The CGC 9.6 version states there are 1684 on the census with 899 sales. Are we at the point where half of the books slabbed are for resale now?

  4. We already have people broadcasting on Whatnot at cons selling items through the platform instead of the con itself. I admit to have used it as I bought a Frank Cho piece through Comicsketch Art that was being sold during the SDCC. While it worked out for me the piece was only available through the Whatnot platform. If I had paid to be at the show and watched the only sketches being auctioned in front of me (they do it at the table) I would be frustrated.

    Will Art Adams, Ryan stegman, mark brooks, Giuseppe Camuncoli be taking sketch requests at the con ?

    will they be bringing original comic art for sale to the show ?

    please let me know Kevin Boyd.

    thanks

     

    Nothing to do with the organizers but does anyone feel it is seemingly more complicated to figure out who is taking sketches and how to get on a list? I seems like everything from the artists side is last minute.
