If any fan brought a book with windowed placement they were told to take it out. To my knowledge no one got a signature if their comic was bagged. Probably because he kept missing the window, and signed the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So which came first, the face sig, or the hair sig? It makes no sense to have it done twice. Then you have 3 different sigs below, all in 3 different colors of ink. I wouldn't pay $1 for this.

oakman29 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Here's my take on the whole signature on a comic book thing. I don't understand why you get a purple label for ink on a comic, yet Sig series you don't. It's really the same thing. It will damage your book over time! I personally feel that if you want a signature of someone whom you admire(which I'm not adverse to) get it on something else. I have Stans signature on a cartoon cel of Spider Man,it fills my need to have his signature. badback83 and Mercury Man 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His eyesight is terrible, but you are correct. It's almost like he aims for the face. Maybe that is the clearest thing on the cover he can make out?! Weird.

Or at least use a new sharpie every once in a while. in all honesty, yes we make fun of stan's ability to sign books in these threads but in all honesty it is truly not his fault, it is his handlers fault. he's 95 has been signing for decades now and has to sign thousands of books per convention, i mean they overwork him and it is not fair for him or for us, the fan's who because he is so tired of signing he can't sign right anymore. now for the problem with him signing on faces, i think it is when you give stan a pile of books to sign all at once, he most likely picks picks one spot to sign and quickly just gets through them all, signing without thought and wherever his pen lands (sometimes on the face) the problem with that horrible AF15 that he signed don the face, the worse stan sig ever guaranteed... i would say it was the guys fault, why on earth would you have a AF15 6.0, an easy 40k + book have signed by Stan just like that, like if i had taht copy, i would be pretty sure to tell stan or his handlers where i want it signed and if they dont listen, go up to stan and just tell him, he will do it if you ask, that is if he hears you... so as much as i love these threads by seeing beatiful books ruined, it is true on Stan being a legend no matter what. and i hope he feels better.

Nuff Said' I'd agree, it's like a conveyor belt. Best I can tell, Stan is just sorta aiming for the middle. I doubt he even sees what he's writing on.
