Normally they will have a sign at their booth with signing times or you can even check their social media to see if they post their schedule (more and more are doing this).

Ah, that makes sense. Very helpful, thanks. I've got 1 or 2 books each for 3 creators (other than Jim Lee, where I bought the package) that I'm trying to get signed and witnessed, and I only have one day to do it! (Wife only let me go for one day).

Unfortunately had to go on Sat as that's the day of the Jim Lee package signing, so that means it's the busiest day... Trying to pre-plan as much as possible so I can be efficient (and also enjoy the Con!)

If there isn't a specific "signing session" in the schedule for certain creators (like there is for Jim Lee, or Artgerm), will that mean that they plan to generally just be at their booth for signings? (So you *should* be able to go at any time in the day? Obviously I understand no guarantee they'll be there all day, but just in general)

For example, I want to get a book signed (and witnessed) with Tom King. He only has a Creator Spotlight noted on the schedule, but nothing about a "signing session".

You'll need to go by his booth and get his schedule from his handlers, or maybe they'll post it here.

Many more guests are requesting signings at their tables instead of in our signing area so they can sell prints, art, etc.

For the most part CK. If an artist is at their booth, generally they will sign. Just walk up and be polite and ask for your signatures. 

[Kevin Boyd]

Generally yes, but King does scheduled signings at his table.

Awesome news Eric, great that it worked out! See you and Jim there. 

Eric pays the bills and I get the street cred.  We'll see you there Chris.  Hopefully with tonnes of new stuff from Chicago.

He will probably do a live drawing demo as part of it.

Thats good to know! Thanks. Generally most writers who come don't even have a table ( ie Dan Slott) thanks for the heads up.

Amy jo! nice add there. I'll look forward to meeting her.

[Kevin Boyd]

The draft schedule is up, and changes are being made. 

McNiven, McGuinness and Larsen have all asked for table signings, so those listed signings are scrapped. Jeff Lemire will only be in the signing area. 

Looks like that Canadian singer/comic book writer is coming after all... details pending...

Not sure if @Kevin Boyd had anything to do with it, but got a reassignment today  1004 double booth with a fake corner.  1 isle closer to the comics and more space to bring you guys more stuff.

Very happy for you.  Nice to see you're out of the underwear aisle.

Allrite Mr. Boyd... if you're messing with me haha is this canadian singer/comic writer who I think it is? Because i'll take back every negative word I said about the celeb booking team. This is a game changer!
