CGC Looks Forward to Hosting DC Comics Artist Rags Morales at an In-House Private Signing

“I’m selfish. I am already used to being at home and not really getting out; as a freelancer, that’s part and parcel, but I miss the interaction.” Morales commented, “I miss telling stories and meeting the people on my social media face to face; reacquainting with some who have become regular friends at shows. I miss seeing how important our work has become.”

If the CGC In-House Private Signing event needs to be rescheduled CGC will securely store all submissions in its vault until the event can be rescheduled.

After Morales 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.
