CGC Announces Private Signing with the Legendary Rob Liefeld

Posted on 9/5/2025

Rob Liefeld, the legendary creator who helped launch Image Comics and electrified fans with Deadpool, Cable and X-Force, is joining forces with CGC Signature Series for an exclusive Private Signing.

CGC Signature Series is thrilled to be hosting another exclusive Private Signing with legendary comic book creator, writer and artist Rob Liefeld, best known as the creator of Marvel’s top mutant superstars Deadpool, Cable, Domino, Stryfe, Shatterstar and Major X.

Liefeld’s 37-year career spans work on many of the industry’s top-tier comic franchises from both DC and Marvel, including X-Men, Captain America, The Avengers, Spider-Man, X-Force, Wolverine, Teen Titans and Hawkman. He single-handedly reinvigorated the New Mutants franchise, transforming it into X-Force, which launched with sales of 5 million copies. To this day, X-Force remains the #2 best-selling comic book of all time. Liefeld started Image Comics with his fellow peers, launching new franchises such as Prophet, Avengelyne, Youngblood, Brigade and Bloodstrike.

For submissions to this signing event only, CGC is unvaulting the Rob Liefeld custom signature label for collectors to add to their comics! If you missed your chance to get this beautiful label before, now is your chance — but only a limited number are available for this event, so don't wait another second!

For this exclusive event, ALL CGC members, including free CGC members, can submit books directly to CGC headquarters in Sarasota, Florida. CGC must receive all submissions for this event by November 20, 2025.

If the CGC Private Signing needs to be rescheduled, CGC will securely store all submissions in its vault until the event can be rescheduled.

After the submitted books are signed, CGC will grade and encapsulate them with an estimated turnaround time of six weeks. If CGC pressing is also requested, the turnaround time is estimated at eight weeks. After grading and encapsulation, the collectibles will be shipped back to their owners.
