CGC is thrilled to host Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti for their third In-House Private Signing event! The powerhouse duo behind titles like Harley Quinn and the Eisner Award nominted, The Pro will be offering their signatures and a limited number of Remarques for purchase. Fans will also have the opportunity to select the brand new CGC custom label featuring original artwork by Amanda Conner from her and Jimmy Palmiotti’s creator owned series The Pro for their submissions.
