Frank Miller, Stan Lee, Joe Simon, Frank Frazetta

 

John Romita, John Byrne, BWS, Neal Adams, Kubert, Steranko

 

 

Moore and Ditko- TOUGH, good Luck.

 

off the top of my head. (shrug)

 

Good list...

 

Byrne, Austin, Steranko (Cap 110 and/or 113), I have Miller (non CGC SS), but I'd really like to get at least one CGC SS. I am in the process of acquiring a BWS (or he'd be here as well). I have 2 Adams, but I wouldn't mind more. A handful more signed by Perez. There are a couple of comics that would be cool to have Simon and Lee sign, but I don't know if I'll ever get them :(

"Sought after"

 

Meaning the demand is always there no matter the supply.

 

Frank Frazetta

Todd McFarlane

Barry Windsor-Smith

Jim Lee

Stan Lee

Frank Miller

John Byrne

 

 

 

No SS, but the demand is great

 

Sam Keith, Alan Moore, Steve Ditko

 

Sam Keith doesn't do signings? Whys that? I guess I've never really picked up on the fact that I haven't seen a SS Keith book.

 

Sam pulled a semi-Alan Moore and went all reclusive ninja on everyone.

Now this is something that really grinds my eyebrows. :frustrated:

 

As an aspireing comics creator myself, I consider it to be very disrespectful to your fans ( THE PEOPLE who made you famous enough to even be asked to sign something) to refuse to put yourself out there and make yourself available to them.

 

They paid their hard earned money for your funny books, they make it possible for you to make a living making comics, you should have the decency to show up once in a while to tell them "Thank you."

I don't know if it's true but I've heard that Kelley Jones doesn't do signings anymore. I got a bunch of Batman books signed by him back in the '90s at the Motor City Comicon and he was really friendly at that point. We talked for almost two hours while he signed for fans.

I very respectfully disagree with this. These folks produced the art they produced as their job, career, profession, maybe even their life's work. If you enjoyed that, that is awesome. But they don't owe you (or me or anyone) anything as result of doing that work. That includes thanks, attendance at cons, signing things or even acknowledging our existence.That is demanding way too much of someone just because they are an artist as opposed to some other career.

You beat me to this response. I read the original post and thought the exact same thing. They gave you what you paid for when you bought their material the first time around, you're not owed anything else.

Do you like Stan Lee so much that you listed him twice, or was one of them intended to be Jim Lee? :baiting:
