CGC Grading On-Site at Chicago Comic-Con

CGC will be grading on-site for all service levels at the Chicago Comic Con Thursday, August 19, through Sunday, August 22. These include Modern*, Economy, Standard, Express and more! Stop by the CGC booth to submit comic books for on-site grading or to request a Signature Series witness.

On-Site certification of your comic book(s) will occur during the weekend of the show. CGC’s goal is to have your books returned to you on the day they are submitted. In the event that we get inundated with submissions, CGC will have your books back to you by the end of the show on Sunday. If we do not meet that deadline, we will ship your books out to you for free within 5 business days. During the show, CGC will have scheduled times for when books will come back to the booth for customer pick-up. We cannot guarantee that your invoice will be in any specific time slot but please feel free to stop by and check.

Signature Series requests can be made for On-Site Certification. However, if CGC and its affiliates are unable to obtain the artist(s) signature(s) by Sunday morning, then the books will not be able to be submitted for On-Site certification and will have to be shipped back to CGC’s facility for regular tiers of certification. You will be responsible for all costs associated with the grading and shipping of this comic in order for it to retain its Signature Series designation.

This show is packed with exciting guests like Arthur Suydam, Brian Pulido, Ethan Van Sciver, Gary Friedrich, Greg Horn, Jim Calafiore, Joe Madureira, Mark Texeira, Michael Golden and Stuart Sayger. Check the convention website for a full list of attending creators.
