Kirk McPherson Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I know I'm throwing this out early, but any word if CGC or any facilitator's will be at the LA Comic Con this year? Understanding that the "comic" part of this con tends to gets buried, it's always been a great opportunity to grab signatures from LA based comic creators that tend to set up in Artist's Alley as well as a couple officially announced comic creators. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I can say with 95% certainty that there will always be some type of facilitator there, even if CGC is not there themselves. Any time there's money to be made from signature verifications, you can bet there will be a facilitator there offering their services. Even at smaller/less established cons like Ontario Comic Con Revolution there is always at least one vendor offering to facilitate CGC sigs/verification.

Grayson9030 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Was wondering the same thing. Thinking of sending Rich Henn some stuff in time for Baltimore but I think I'll try my luck with LA Comic Con, its just an hour away from me. It'll be my first experience getting stuff done in person, hopefully with a witness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinhg Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Hopefully someone will be doing send ins - there are a few books I'd love signed and submitted after just looking at the guest list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumption Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 How is the Comic Book Dealer turnout for this event based on previous years? I'm flying down for the Cal Comic Con in Feb for sure... just wondering if this one is also worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk McPherson Posted November 23, 2022 Author Share Posted November 23, 2022 Now that we're closer to the event, and the number of creators appearing is pretty decent, would anyone have a lead on who'll be facilitating signatures if CGC doesn't set up shop?

Just looking at the Exhibitor List on the app, I can see Desert Wind Comics and Collectibles (who set up at pretty much every major con in the region). They offer signature verification/submission facilitation for a fee. This is just the first one I see/off the of the top of my head, but there will probably be more. littledoom and Kirk McPherson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time going through a facilitator. I need road signs pointing me in the right direction. Aarrow108 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say find their both first to make sure you’re comfortable using them and are familiar with their process/paperwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDarkseid1 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Super productive con for me soo far! Picked up an early Captain Comet Strange Adventures issue I needed from Harley Yee Comics, and some nice early post Captain Comet copies under issue 100. And got my ASM 700 I’ve been working on for years signed and sketched by Sam De La Rosa, who I’ve literally never seen at a west coast convention lol. littledoom, Aarrow108 and Bumble Kitty 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
