Aspen Comics #2

The old thread had hit the wall, so here's a new one.

Haven't read really any Witchblade, but here is a pic of Aspen & Sara to get this thread going.

Not a bad start.

Thx for the new thread.

I'm kinda on the fence about signed comics. You know, I love getting the guy's autograph, but should we ruin a book for it? I'm not so sure. Especially given what he charges.

It doesn't bother me a bit, if I'm getting the autograph in person, because odds are that I'm not gonna try to sell that comic anyway. I never pay extra for an autographed comic.

I considered it before I started going to the conventions. Just about everyone I've been interested in getting an autograph from has been to the Dallas con.

Do they sign comics for free?

Also, I saw aspenstore.com has a signed CGC graded (9.4) Civil War 1, sketch variant on sale. 299.99

Yep. I've seen people bring like 50 books for one artist, so some of them limit the number. Michael Golden was the only artist I saw that charged for autographs at all. He'd sign 5 books for free, but if you wanted more than that you had to buy this hardcover book he was selling.

That's fair, after all, you have to move the line somehow.

Bah. If the man can't sell his book the old fashioned way, he shouldn't be trying to coerce people into buying it.

Well, I guess you have to do what you can to make money. That is cool that he signed some books for free though.

It wouldn't bother me so much if every other artist there wasn't signing however many books you brought them for free.

But what if you brought 300 books? Show up with a long box

As long as you took them out of the bags and boards, most of the artists would sign them. I saw Andy Kubert sign at least 150 books from one person.
