Glad you liked them.  I really liked the red Steranko signature in the folio.

Steranko has the nicest signature I have ever seen.

[grebal]

Frazetta's is pretty sharp, too. 

Though a lot more expensive, from what I've heard.

Yes but do they sign with cockroaches??

You know, I  would probably kill you for that book.

Just sayin...

[grebal]

I just pulled the image down from the web as example of his sig  - I don't have anything even remotely in that class of book.

Damn straight!

That kind of stuff would demand I have a sig line.  [Then again with their life on the line some people might say anything.]

[kav]

I think @oakman29 has OA with frazetta sig

Thank you so much for offering it up!

I know it's been a while since the contest ended, but I just wanted to thank @Ron C. again for the awesome Venom sketch cover from Frank A. Kadar!

Ron helped put me in touch with Steve Hiatt of Port City Comics to get it graded signature series, and I am now the proud owner of my first signature series book!

The reason for the delay in posting? UPS accidentally returned the book the first time it was shipped, and the case had a small crack in it when I finally received it (probably from all that back-and-forth traveling ).

CGC reholdered the book for me free of charge, and here it is sitting in a 9.6 SS slab...
