Great report Chuck. Unsurprisingly, you have great taste in comix AND babes.

 

Now, the question: am I reading that sign correctly, that Los Bros are still selling original copies (verified by them) of the original B&W Love & Rockets book, for what looks to be $100??? THe same one that people have been passing photocopies off on ebay for hundreds or thousands of dollars? And if so, did you buy the whole stack and run away screaming?

 

It's been nearly 20 years since I have been to SDCC. I got to talk to Los Bros back then as well, but they didn't have any pre-drawn pieces for sale and they DEFINITELY didn't have any of those 1st edition books. Man alive, super super super jealous right now.

I think that says "It's a real one, honest!" on the sign - sounds like some good old fashioned sarcasm. I mean, otherwise, you're correct, the right answer would be to buy the whole stack and run away screaming lol

Yes... I bought two last year and he had a few people buy multiple copies last year... he was very much aware of who was buying this year and limiting them to one per person.

 

They are the real deal - I made CGC is aware of them last year - as they don't have the stamp - these are VRIGIN copies, straight from Jamie's private stash.

 

The one I have left is a dead ringer for a 9.8 if I ever get around to slabbing it.

Unannounced signature opportunity, or just a brief appearance? He's hard to nail down!

 

He was hard to nail down, as he was only at the Diamond booth signing for an hour and a half. I believe it was announced. If you managed to catch him, you can consider yourself extremely lucky. (thumbs u
