I decided to send in my copy of Spider-man 300 given the gpa numbers for signed vs just slabbed. I think it makes financial sense even though I abhor signatures on covers personally.

My question is do we need to do window bags if they are pressing the books?

Yes. They will most likely press after the signature.

Actually they press before signature. I sent a book in for the Paul dini signing and it went straight to ccs. I think Byrdibyrd said she found they press BEFORE signing too. Which to me is nuts but I guess if uou have to play the game.....

IMHO - having seen a ton of Frank Miller "signatures"...hard pass. He's one of those creators who just doesn't seem to give a toss about legibility or being creative; his "signature" is just a scribbled line. I wouldn't pay a penny for his signature, and I'll bet his remarques are rushed (and lame) as well. Same thing with Garth Ennis and Alan Davis. I'm not making any comment about their artistic talents (they're professionals, I'm not...'nuff said), just giving my two cents. Yes, Todd charges a high premium, but at least you can READ HIS SIGNATURE and there's a certain "aesthetic" to his signature that's pleasing to the eye. Fun fact: I attended NYCC during the last year of Jammin' Gene Colan's life, and even he, with partial blindness and a host of other physical ailments, took the time to give this fan a legible signature that I cherish to this day.
