CGC Announces In-House Private Signing with Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner

Posted on 5/21/2025

Fan-favorite creators Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner are teaming up with CGC Signature Series for an exclusive signing event! Don’t miss your chance to submit books and cards for signatures and remarques from this dynamic duo!

CGC is thrilled to offer collectors the opportunity to have their comics and cards signed by the amazing duo of Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner!

Amanda Conner is a powerhouse in the comic book industry, dazzling fans with her instantly recognizable, vibrant and expressive style! For more than 30 years, she has brought iconic heroines to life in Harley Quinn, Power Girl, Vampirella, Starfire, Painkiller Jane, Silk Spectre and Wonder Woman, infusing every page with humor, heart and electrifying energy. Beyond her unforgettable storytelling, she dominates the world of comic book covers, averaging around 40 stunning pieces a year for the industry’s biggest publishers.

Her art is more than just eye-catching — it’s a celebration of the bold, playful and powerful spirit of comics themselves. Amanda Conner isn’t just an artist; she’s a legend, shaping the way we see our favorite characters and redefining what it means to create truly captivating visual narratives!

Jimmy Palmiotti is also a powerhouse in the comic book industry, known for his sharp storytelling, dynamic art and ability to breathe new life into classic characters. He started as an inker at Marvel in the early '90s, working on Punisher, Ghost Rider and the Marvel 2099 line, before co-founding Event Comics with Joe Quesada. Together, they created Ash and Painkiller Jane, two cult-favorite characters that showcased their knack for gritty, high-energy storytelling. Their success led to spearheading the Marvel Knights imprint, which revitalized Daredevil, Punisher and Black Panther, setting the stage for modern superhero storytelling. Palmiotti later became a prolific writer creating the company PaperFilms and crafting standout runs on Deadpool, Heroes for Hire, Jonah Hex, Harley Quinn, Power Girl, Batwing and Red Sonja, blending humor, action and classic storytelling.

Currently, Palmiotti is writing the monthly Deadly Tales of the Gunslinger for Todd McFarlane and Image Comics, a series that explores the brutal origins of Gunslinger Spawn. He is also working on Pop Kill for Mad Cave Studios, a chaotic, espionage-fueled comic centered around rival soda companies, and the upcoming crossover series Harley Quinn/Elvira for Dynamite comics.

For this special event only, CGC has unvaulted the Palmiotti and Conner Custom Label, featuring their comic, The Pro. This label will only be available for comics submitted to this signing event and then it will go back into the CGC vault!
