Is this a legit McFarlane Spawn drawing? Is there a definitive answer to this? 1 1

The signature looks odd to me.

Geez, where’s McFarlaneman when you need him?  ?

[Lucky Baru]

Looks an a lot like the one that ended on eBay on June 25th.  I don't think they are the same drawings though.  Really close sketch. Comparison, for you.

Mike.  It looks like a Spawn convention sketch he did on a backing board.  It's a pretty standard design (i've seen at least 3 similar ones on CAF), including one where Todd himself confirmed he drew and signed it.

Here’s mine which Todd confirmed was real.

It does look a bit off. Maybe I'm mistaken (I'm no signature expert).

[romitaman]

thanks for all the help everyone above.......Yes this is drawn on a white comic backing board... I was taking this in a small trade...it seems legit to me after the above discussion and pics so i'll do the trade.

Much appreciated.

The first A in McFarlane bothers me.  In the silver, you can see he doesn't lift his pen when making the crossbar on his A's.  I'm no handwriting expert though

The "E" also looks like it was made with 3 strokes rather than 2, as is clear in the verified signature.

To be honest with you two, the "FAR" in McFarlane are all bothering me... 

[Spawn1709]

The first "D" in Todd also looks a bit off.

[jaybuck43]

To me, it just looks like he was dealing with a dying sharpie (hence the extra lifts etc, i.e a retracing to darken a light letter etc.)

lord knows none of my signatures on checks and stuff look exactly the same, (esp on those stupid touch screens), but the way I write it is the same.

Fair enough. I'm no expert so I can't really judge.

I agree.

The "AR" does not seem consistent with the other 2 examples in this thread.

here's mine

1st post - oddly I'm posting to this one. Seems to me the strokes for the "D" and "a" are very different. On a legit signature, the D always goes downstroke, upstroke, curve. On the "ar" and "an" the legit signatures shows the pen is never taken off the paper and a single stroke transitions from a to the following letter. That's not happening on the questioned piece.
