? about getting comics signed by the Inker3038

How much would you say if you were to estimate how much a comic would increase by value if the book was just signed by the inker compared to the artist or story etc?

Only reason I ask is because I might have an opportunity to get a few books that are just signed by the inker, will probably wind up reselling.

ah. OK. well.... as I'm honestly not too familiar with his work off the top of my head I can't really give you an honest answer. but if your getting it signed for yourself that's all that matters. if your wanting to get it signed to resell then I'm not sure how it would effect the overall value.

Issue #, demand, cover artists and so on in succession. So the inker would be trumped by a lot. The book market tells you what drivers of value are.

Inkers are just lower on the pole. Big names small names etc.
I'd try to get others on the team as well to add value.

If it has personal/sentimental value..that is totally different.

I think it would also depend if their name was on the cover as well. I know many times myself I was browsing yellow labeled books and saw names on there I didn't recognize or didn't see on the cover and kept browsing.

For personal books in my collection I try and get everyone I can that was involved in the book I am a serious fan of.

To add, if you're tactically seeking to get the team on the cover for value's sake. Don't forget the costs. Sig on top of sig and the costs associated (especially if witnessed) is going to add up. There has to be a real demand for you to recoup the time and money spent.
