CGC Announces In-House Private Signing with Marvel Cover Artist Greg Horn

CGC is thrilled to announce that comic book artist Greg Horn has agreed to do an In-House Private Signing. Horn is best known as a cover artist for Marvel Comics. He arrived at Marvel in 1999 sporting a sensational new form of computer art, ushering in the digital art movement that dominates the comic industry to this day. As a cover illustrator, he is also acclaimed for his pinup prints and posters of female characters.

“Hey everyone, Greg Horn here. I’m super-bummed about all these convention cancellations as I know a lot of you were looking forward to getting your comic books signed. Most of all I am missing the interaction with fans and art lovers from around the country. However, I think the private signing at CGC’s office will be a great solution! I’ll be autographing all submissions live, and I was told I’ll be able to chit-chat with people online and even make personal calls! It will be just like a convention without the con crud! I think I’ll spice things up by remarking a few random books, and I’ll also throw in a few of my vaunted full signatures to boot! So, send something that catches my eye or makes me extremely happy (hint, hint).”

For Horn’s CGC In-House Private Signing, both free and paid CGC members can submit collectibles directly to CGC headquarters in Florida. CGC will coordinate with Horn for the collectibles to be signed in mid-July.

If the CGC In-House Private Signing needs to be rescheduled due to show postponements or cancellations, travel restrictions or other reasons, CGC will securely store all submissions in its vault until the event can be rescheduled.

After Horn signs the collectibles, CGC will grade them with expedited turnaround times of three weeks for grading or six weeks for grading and pressing. Collectibles are then shipped back to their owners.

The CGC In-House Private Signing fee of $70 per item includes:

• Greg Horn’s signature
• Expedited turnaround time of three weeks for CGC grading
• Expedited turnaround time of six weeks for CGC grading and CCS pressing (an additional $20 fee applies for CCS pressing)
• Encapsulation with CGC’s iconic yellow Signature Series label

CGC must receive all submissions for this event at its Florida headquarters by Friday, July 3, 2020.
