CGC Announces In-House Private Signing with Comic Book Illustrator & Creator Tyler Kirkham

CGC is delighted to announce the incredibly talented comic book artist and creator Tyler Kirkham is joining the roster of CGC In-House Private Signing artists. For over 15 years, Kirkham’s art has delivered a combination of ‘western’ and manga style, which has an intense, unyielding style that comes to life right off the pages in all of his books like; Green Lantern, The World of Deathstroke, and Dark Night Metal and many-many more.

Kirkham had this message for his fans, “I’m really missing the meet-and-greets that we would normally be doing through comic events – but when CGC asked if I would be interested in a private signing event, I was thrilled! This is a great opportunity for you to get some signatures and for me to see the work you’ve been hanging onto. I wish we could meet in person, but I hear we might be able to chat through CGC’s social channels as I sign your books. So, get ready as I might be calling your name out on a book I haven’t seen in a long time. Can’t wait to see what you submit!”

For Kirkham’s CGC In-House Private Signing, both free and paid CGC members can submit collectibles directly to CGC headquarters in Florida. CGC will coordinate with Kirkham for the collectibles to be signed in the end of August.

If the CGC In-House Private Signing needs to be rescheduled due to show postponements or cancellations, travel restrictions or other reasons, CGC will securely store all submissions in its vault until the event can be rescheduled.

After Kirkham signs the collectibles, CGC will grade them with expedited turnaround times of three weeks for grading or six weeks for grading and pressing. Collectibles are then shipped back to their owners.

The CGC In-House Private Signing fee of $70 per item includes:

• Tyler Kirkham signature
• Expedited turnaround time of three weeks for CGC grading
• Expedited turnaround time of six weeks for CGC grading and CCS pressing (an additional $20 fee applies for CCS pressing)
• Encapsulation with CGC’s iconic yellow Signature Series label

CGC must receive all submissions for this event at its Florida headquarters by Wednesday, August 12, 2020.
