| FYI, I asked Byrne on his forum and he says the incident never happened and that he generally declines to sign other people’s work. | ||

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| An artist has every right to charge whatever they want to whoever they want, for whatever reason. However, if any artist is now saying they dont want their sig slabbed at all... thats just going too far. Too bad. Not their choice, nor their right. I hope none of the grading companies cave to that pressure, its ridiculous. |

| @shrewbeer There is a stick and a carrot. The carrot is the chance for CBCS to get the exclusive in the future. The stick could involve litigation, restrictions on signings, or potentially bad mouthing CBCS to others. Since I am not privy to the conversations between the artists and the grading companies I do not know exactly why CBCS is playing nice with McFarlane and Kirkman, etc. at our expense. |

| By the way, you're more than welcome to go on John Byrne's message board and jog his memory about this. | ||

| Read the exchange on Byrne's forum. Tried to sign up but it would not accept a Gmail address. I would like to think Byrne was mistaken. I am pretty sure Byrne refused to sign the cover as opposed to the book. If his intention in taking my book out of it's window bag was not to sign it but to show me that it wasn't his I would be not have been pleased. He could just as easily have told me that he wasn't going to sign it without man handling my book. Thanks to IDW we will never know for sure as they intervened before he could actually sign the book. |

| I had the good fortune to have John Byrne sign three of my books. While I was disappointed that I was unable to get two Marvel books signed mostly because my mistake in picking a non-Byrne book gave the IDW person a chance to catch me trying to make the switch. The fact is that Byrne chose to inspect the book rather than sign it's cover. Whether or not he would have signed it I have a hard time seeing the upside in going on Byrne's sight to antagonize him for signing my books (seems a good way to get myself excluded from future signings). While I think he could gave chosen his words better he is correct in that he did not sign the book. My problem is not with John Byrne who helped me avoid having him sign a book that wasn't his but with you who continue to question my integrity. I shared my experience at the Byrne signing as I share much of my knowledge and experience here. If you choose to believe that my account of events is incomplete or erroneous you are free to disregard it but repeatedly questioning me and my account of events is unwelcome and unacceptable. |

| OK, how about the fact that he said he didn’t want to sign any books to be slabbed and you’re going to try and get them done anyway? FYI, I’m done with this now. I got the answer I was looking for elsewhere. |

Quote:Originally Posted by shrewbeer You're advising that if you entered into a contract or an agreement with someone and it had conditions on it that it is going to far? That confuses me. Apparently you've never read too many contracts. Many come with conditions about what you are able to do after the sale all the time. Heck, I can think of companies that provide services whose contracts even have built in courses of action that the buyer agrees when he makes a purchase of their service. If there is a problem, the buyer has to follow those agreed upon remedies. If the buyer doesn't follow those actions they can be bounced from being a customer in the future and face legal action. |
