Pirate,

 

Contact a member dealer like Paradise or thecollector about whatever you want done in New York.

 

I'll be announcing this elsewhere but we will be having special CGC booth signings to promote Signature Series with Jae Lee (Friday), John Romita Sr. (Saturday - very limited), and Ron Marz and Steve Sadowski (Sunday).

 

I'm still working on the details for Megacon. There will be a booth signing there with Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner. Right now it looks like most of the sig series dealers and witnesses will be in New York in February, not Orlando. I am waiting for confirmation from any of the member dealers about getting books done for Signature Series at Megacon. CGC staff can witness signatures for Sig Series at that event, but that will have to be worked out with them at the booth at the show itself.

 

Thanks,

Kevin

 

Thanks for the info, hopefully there will be some opportunities in orlando other than amanda conner.

PM me. I am already going to get some books done for other collectors. I will only be there on Saturday, so if you want something done, please keep the number small. Thanks.

Thanks Alex. I'll post a link when they officially announce it online.

 

News for February 28th:

 

Regretfully I must announce that Ethan Van Sciver has cancellled, here's the note he sent me:

 

Kevin:

 

I'm gonna have to bow out of the Paradise show. I've got too much work that needs attending to, and WizLA is gonna be tough enough as it is.

 

I hope you understand, and thanks for the invitation.

 

EVS

 

On a positive note, Michael Lark has signed on as a guest for the April 28-30 show!

Thanks!

 

And you never know who might sign up between now and April, we've still got a few people who haven't given us the final "OK" yet.

 

Last year we had Bill Sienkiewicz sign up at the last minute, and we had a couple of unannounced signings with JMS... this year? We'll have to wait and see...
