Who owns is the Best Cover Remark CGC SS Sketch around? You decide!

 

:rulez:

 

1) Sketch must contain a cover remark (see above) on a cover not intended for a sketch. So no book that was ever intended to have a sketch added to is allowed (Fallen Son, Secret Invasion, etc. [the blank versions]) nor would any that weren't intended to be used that way but commonly get used that way (Zero Hour, ASM v2 #36, Midnight Massacre, etc.). Additionally covers with a small carve out area for a sketch are not allowed. The cover remark needs to be on top of existing artwork.

2) CGC SS Only. Any sketches currently en route to or presently at CGC for CGC SS are also acceptable.

3) If you know of a sketch that you think is the best nominate it. One nomination per owner. Owner with multiple sketches nominated must pick only one sketch to be voted on.

4) When nominating, please include artist name and owner's board name.

5) Round 1: All nominated Sketches will be voted on in a Poll. Then the Top 2 will face off. The winner will be declared the Best of the Best Cover Remark CGC Sketch!

6) Tie Breaks: In the event of a tie for the second spot in the Finals, a 48 hour sudden death round between the tied sketches will be implemented. In the event of a tie at the end of the finals, a 24 hour sudden death poll will be implemented.

7) One Month after being declared the winner, A sketch may challenge for the title. The new challenger(s) must be nominated by 3 board members. In the event of multiple challengers wanting to take on the champ, they will first compete against each other in a battle royal. The winner of the battle royal will then get a title shot at the existing champ.

8) What makes the best sketch is up to the voter: Best Art, Artists, Grade …

 

Get Your Nominations in. Voting for Round 1 starts the night of 11/13/12.

 

The Winner gets Bragging Rights and will decide the next category!

 

P.S. Thx to Par2ch and Peter Palmer for the great examples and detailed rule specs.

In looking at them, the Black Spidey sketch on the left appears to be Beatty and the one on the right appears to be Zeck. When Zeck and Beatty signed they typically each offered to do a remarque. It wouldn't have made sense for Mike to have drawn both.

Zeck, always wondered if both sketches are Zeck? or if it was Zeck & Beatty

comiconxion is correct, the one to the left is done by John Beatty and the larger one to the right was done by Mike Zeck during a private signing I held with both of them.

 

If you look at the label it states "signed and sketch by Mike Zeck on....and John Beatty on.... correctly noting that both signed and sketched this book.
