Seems his go to for that issue is silver, which isn't too shabby over the art and is more visible, not that I'm knocking anyone's acquisitions, it's just what I prefer or my goal.

aabruzzese Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I am curious about something, when you send in a book for signing does the artist have to be related to the specfic issue you are submitting. So if I have a Peter Perker Spiderman Key I would love to have signed, I would need to look for a CGC signing event with the artist for that specific issue right?

It doesn't necessarily have to be the artist. It can be a writer, editor, letterer, colorist. But you definitely want someone connected with the story. aabruzzese 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of it depends on the artist also. Like I know for instance that even though he helped create Venom, that when you send it books for a Todd McFarlane signing, that he lists certain Venom related stuff he won't sign. Whereas Rob Liefeld created Cable, and for his upcoming signing I don't recall him saying he wouldn't sign Cable books he didn't draw. I mean he still could say no, no way to know for sure, but seems like if they are adamant about not signing particular books, they list that in the info on the signing when CGC is doing it. aabruzzese 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible the online submission form will not allow you to complete a mechanical error submission, as this is the second time sending it back. I recommend contacting customer service immediately, and explaining the whole situation to them. Make sure they know this is the second time shipping back to us. The Ask CGC forum might be better than an e-mail. They check the forum in the mornings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Printed shipping label and just packed up with fresh bubble wrap. Also its 1st time shipping back, second problem with the order as it was extremely delayed. Sat in GEI for a month and went 9 weeks before it shipped after having a ticket opened to find it.

I am not sure how long current turn around times are for a ME. Customer service could provide you with an estimate. Be sure to write ME in multiple places on the outside of the box. That will help to ensure it gets logged into the system quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
