Ho Boy... "LAST FF52 Signed by Stan Lee!" *deep breath* 0

[miraclemet]

Is this seriously what we're gonna be dealing with? 

How does he know this "fact"? I assume that it can be corroborated that he didnt do any other witnessed signings after this, and I guess if the SS census only went up by 1 after he got his book back he could reasonably assume it was his, and his was the last.. but geeze...

"CGC reps say it could take months to have all of the info on the last signings, down on paper." 

Seriously is CGC really doing this? Documenting the last signings by Stan? Didn't we squeeze all of the life out of him we could? Is there some other way we can monetize him? 

If they're really doing all this I'll be disappointed.

It was signed on November 10th, but didn't reach the CGC census until this week. That book showed up on the CGC Census between the January 8th and January 15th updates, so it's safe to say that the total number of CGC Stan Lee signatures is not settled yet (or it just got settled as of January 15th).

Hey, somebody already made a signature series out of his BLOOD. I won't be satisfied until I can snort his ashes.

they're hanging their hat on some statement (supposedly by CGC) that Stan only signed 10-15 items that day...

WHY didnt someone shove a book under his hand when he was gasping his last breath??  

[Dark Knight]

I think the last book i had Stan signed was #12,855,378

Looks like it is finally time to slab that fecal matter of Stan's that I have been saving.

We need a new label color. I have some books Stan was thinking about signing before he passed. It's the next big thing.

Forget 'Weekend at Bernie's' … how about 'Weekend at Stan's' ?

In all fairness , didn’t marvel put out a Kiss comic made out of their blood? Marvel and Stan would do anything for a buck. I didn’t think it would get crazy with his sigsvonce he died. 

Another opertunity lost, bro  story of my life   

 

[KirbyJack]

Didn’t any of these people like him?

It bums me out to think that Stan was surrounded exclusively by leeches at the end of his life. Hope that’s not the case.

[LOC Collectibles]

I made sure to comment on that post. They didn't like what I had to say.

[Columbia Comics]

never been a fan of SS books and this just reaffirms my dislike; sad that this is what's become of it....

[theCapraAegagrus]

I couldn't care less about someone's 'first' or 'last' book signed.

If some dunce wants to pay extra for it, then all the power to the seller. I won't pay more for it, though.

Yeah, and Mark Gruenwald's ashes were mixed into the ink of the first Squadron Supreme tpb. The difference is, those were Mark's wishes, and KISS were also involved in their blood ink decision as well.

Stan had a bunch of ghoulish handlers eager to pimp him out for every penny they could scrounge. I doubt he even knew what was going on the last few months, if not years.

Sadly it's been well established that he was taken advantage of in his latter years.  I wonder where the rest of his family was during all this?  I know he has a daughter; not sure about anyone else...

Stan, himself, denied these allegations.
