DESERT WIND COMICS IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE A SIGNING WITH CAPTAIN AMERICA CO-CREATOR

JOE SIMON

 

Desert Wind Comics is honored and privileged to announce a special signing with Joe Simon in New York. You can get your books signed by the legendary comic book writer/artist and graded and authenticated by Certified Guaranty Company (CGC) with the prestigious Signature Series label.

 

Desert Wind Comics has had the privilege of several previous signings with Joe during the year and looks forward to once again offering comic fans another opportunity to get their prized possessions signed by the legend that co-created the American icon Captain America. Joe, enjoying his retirement from the comic industry, does not travel much, and rarely makes a con appearance. So don’t miss this opportunity. We have a limited number of spots open for this exclusive signing, so get your submissions in now! The deadline for submitting the books to our office is Monday, October 5th. Complete submission details are listed in our Exclusive Signings section on our website at www.desertwindcomics.com. Submissions will be accepted at the Pittsburgh Comicon, Long Beach Comic-Con and the Baltimore Comic-Con as well.

 

NOW FOR THE REALLY FUN NEWS. Desert Wind Comics will be celebrating with Joe his 96th birthday. We have had this scheduled with Joe since our visit with him back in May and are really excited that we will be able to deliver gifts, birthday cards and well wishes from Joe’s fans. So we encourage everyone to submit a signed birthday card for us to take to Joe. Everyone who sends a signed birthday card along with their submission of a book(s) will be eligible for the Joe Simon Memorabilia Drawing. Each qualified book submitted is given a special number and each number will go into a barrel. Joe himself will draw the winning ticket during the signing. The winner will receive a one of a kind piece of signed memorabilia from Joe. Complete rules will be posted on our website.

 

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MAIL IN SUBMISSION DEADLINE IS MONDAY, OCTOBER 5th.

Express........$130.00

Walk-Thru (quoted based on value of book)

or if you are adding Joe to a submitted Stan Lee book please add $30.00 to the Stan Lee price. All prices are subject to change.

 

These prices include Joe Simon’s charity donation, the CGC grading and encapsulation, witnessing fee, prepping the book(s), shipping, handling, and insurance to the event.

So.....is my idea of sending a Captain America box cutter, a gallon of shampoo, an ice pick, a baseball bat, two flare guns, a really nice set of brass knuckles, a cattle prod, and nice drill set with lots of bits, a styrofoam cup of gasoline, some turpentine, and a canister of tear gas may not be entirely appropriate?

I think the styrofoam cup of gasoline may be a little overkill. lol

I can't wait for this signing. I picked up a CGC copy of Boy Commandos #1 for Joe to sign. That will be a keeper for me. Thanks to Pete over at Paradise for that little beauty.

That is one of the books I will be sending you as well, Chandler. Great choice.

A reminder that the mail in submission deadline is Monday, October 5th. We will be accepting onsite submissions at both Long Beach and Baltimore.

 

Just a note. I can honestly say that as of right now Captain SAMerica has the most original birthday card for Joe. Sharon cried when she saw it. It was awesome!
