Over more than 20 years drawing and creating comics, Kirkham is best known for projects such as Amazing Spider-Man, Ultimate Fantastic Four, Green Lantern Corps, Teen Titans, Action Comics and Deathstroke. His dynamic work and in-your-face, jump-off-the-rack style has set him apart and led to him becoming one of the most sought-after and requested cover artists in the game.

Kirkham has shown no sign of slowing down as he is also creating, writing and drawing creator-owned series like Final Boss and Screwed: Project Frankenstein! Recently, he set a new standard for collecting comic books with his Battle Damage cover theme series that has set the industry and the world of collectibles on fire by introducing an overarching theme that has collectability across multiple publishers, making it the perfect collection to submit for this signing!

CGC will be offering an all-new, exclusive, limited-edition Tyler Kirkham custom label to commemorate this special Private Signing. The label features Kirkham’s signature stylized to celebrate his work on the fan-favorite Final Boss comic book, and can be purchased for an additional fee by fans interested in adding it to their Tyler Kirkham submissions!
