CGC is thrilled to announce that comic book artist Clayton Crain will once again be joining us for another In-House Private Signing at our headquarters! Crain is best known for his incredible digital painted work on Marvel Comics books such as Spider-Man, Carnage, Ghost Rider, and Venom. He has also worked on the Valiant Comics series, Rai, as well as with comic legend Todd McFarlane on several DC Comics stories. In addition to signing, Crain will also be offering his iconic Infinity Signature and a limited number of Remarques for purchase. Get the full details on all the submission options below. Crain’s captivating acrylic and digital covers have fans excited for every new piece he creates. His notable works stretch far and wide, from his earlier art in Image Comics’ Curse of the Spawn to the not-yet-published Marvel series, Ant-Man. Crain is also admired for his Infinity Signature, which has quickly become a fan favorite. Some call it the “Crain-bow” due to the multiple colors Crain uses to create this one-of-a-kind signature. “CGC has the pleasure of hosting so many creative minds!" exclaimed Brittany McManus, CGC’s Signature Series Director. “We are so excited to continue connecting artists and writers with comic fans, and we're so happy to have Crain join us again!

thesink Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 According to twitter the Miller/Janson signing occurred this weekend. So, based on the CGC time-frame of 3 weeks for grading and 6 weeks for pressing and grading the expected turnaround dates are May 3rd and May 24th. Let's see how close they are (mine are in for pressing and grading). ADAMANTIUM and Rotcod 2 Link to post Share on other sites

thesink Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) My Percy & Kubert just shipped back. It's a lower grade than I expected, but not shocked. Notes say signed on 2/17 & 2/25. Using 3/1 as the first day of "grading", it is 6 weeks to the day turnaround time. Edited April 13 by thesink fatlab123, ADAMANTIUM and Rotcod 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
fatlab123 Posted Friday at 08:02 PM Share Posted Friday at 08:02 PM (edited) For those who did the frank miller signing..my book just went to Scheduled for Grading..no in house pressing Edited Friday at 08:04 PM by fatlab123 thesink 1 Link to post Share on other sites
waynemel Posted Friday at 08:44 PM Share Posted Friday at 08:44 PM For the Miller signing, good to know. Mine still shows Received though I do have pressing so will be a little longer for me. On different topic, for the James Tynion signing, received submission acknowledgement but when I checked my submission status, it shows as Scheduled for Grading. It should be Received. Have a call into CGC about this and to correct. Ha this happened to anyone in the past? Link to post Share on other sites
ADAMANTIUM Posted 23 hours ago Author Share Posted 23 hours ago Hey there, comic fans! We know many of you have been requesting more information on a number of private signings, so we thought it was a good idea to get some more detailed information out to you. Here is a list of signing updates! • Chris Evans Signing - All books have been signed. • Chris Claremont Signing - All previously unsigned books have been signed. • Joe Rubinstein - All previously unsigned books have been signed. • Frank Miller and Klaus Janson - All books have been signed and Remarques/Sketches completed. • Ben Bishop - All previously unsigned books have been signed. • Kevin Eastman Signing - All previously unsigned books have been signed. • Geoff Johns, David Finch, Brad Anderson, Peter Tomasi, Doug Mahnke, and Jason Fabok Signing - Due to international travel setbacks this signing was pushed out later than expected. However, we are happy to report that we have received all of Jason Fabok's signed books back from Canada and we will be getting David Finch and Brad Anderson books signed by mid-May. If you selected a Fabok ONLY signature, those books have already been sent through for grading. • We apologize for the delays, but please know we are working around the clock to make sure every customer gets what they have requested. Lastly, we are so grateful for your continued support and appreciate your patience as we navigate through the tremendous growth we have seen in the comic collecting community. Even without Comic Cons (which we dearly miss!), you have all made this an exciting time for all of us at CGC Comics!
