Not the creator, but I did sell a Unity Box Set (Vol. 1-4) to Valiant's Director of International Publishing and Merchandising last year.

 

That's actually good to know... Perhaps they plan on revitalizing a version of that storyline minus Turok, Solar, and Magnus.

I sold a Lovecraft hardcover (Vertigo, 2003) online to a guy who I'm pretty sure was Hans Rodionoff (the book's writer), based on his username and email address.  I thought it was odd at the time.

Paul Cornell has bought from me on ebay from time to time. I've comped Dan Slott some Spidey books in the past, but the coolest would be the late George A. Romero buying a stack of Empire of the Dead #1's from me at a con. I gave him a good deal in return for a couple of signed copies. He and his wife were very pleasant and great to deal with.

I see what you did there

I sold a Bob Lefevre retailer incentive copy of Transformers Infiltration #6 to a guy by the same name on ebay a few years back.  I assume it was the same guy because it didn't strike me as a common name.

Not a creator but I just sold a book to Mooch

had a few creators buy from me, also have had actors buy. The actor who plays Jesus on the Walking Dead needed books to sign.

My buddy sold a couple of Batman Adv's comics that were in a bargain bin box on the floor  to artist Bruce Timm.

Jonboy Myers bought a copy of his first Batman Adventures 12 and then another when I put my other copy up two or three weeks later.

Back when I used to collect baseball cards, I did a trade deal with a former GM of the Mets.

Also have given Sean Doolittle one of his own cards -- a camouflage variant, as he's supported veterans' causes.

 

...can't think of anything on the comics front.    : )

Sold the Psycho mini series from Innovation to the artist, Felipe Echevarria. Also sold an issue of The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis to Bob Denver very early in my eBay selling career. He paid by check.

Whoa, that address would be worth a lot more than whatever you sold him, I'm sure. Those Rick n Morty fans are friggin nuts.

I can decode the address from that image.

I was thrilled when Wendy Pini purchased an Elfquest inspired  t-shirt I'd made to advertise my first shop, Quest End.

I was embarrassed when Richard Pini used the shirt as an example of how unprincipled people were costing them money by using his properties without compensation.

Nah, just cashed it. I don't think Bob signed it, but I don't recall, I do remember the check had both his name and his wife's, so she may have signed it.
