CGC Announces Private Signing with Ralph Ineson

CGC Signature Series is pleased to herald an exclusive Private Signing event with the larger-than-life actor Ralph Ineson!

With one of the most commanding voices in modern genre storytelling, Ineson recently brought cosmic gravitas to the role of Galactus in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Known for his deep, unmistakable delivery and imposing screen presence, he has become a favorite among sci-fi and fantasy fans through memorable roles like Dagmer Cleftjaw in Game of Thrones and the deeply unsettling patriarch William in The Witch.

His distinctive voice has also made him a major presence in gaming, where he has portrayed characters such as Charles Vane in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Lorath Nahr in Diablo IV and Cidolfus “Cid” Telamon in Final Fantasy XVI, cementing his reputation as one of the most recognizable voices across comics, fantasy and interactive worlds.

CGC must receive all submissions for this event by May 8, 2026. The deadline for international submissions is two weeks earlier than the US deadline to allow time for delivery. If the CGC Private Signing needs to be rescheduled, CGC will securely store all submissions in its vault until the event can be held.

After the submitted comics and cards 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.
