CGC Welcomes Prolific Comic Book Penciller, Humberto Ramos, for an In-House Private Signing 

So far, there’s a slow start to comic cons in 2021, which is why CGC is excited to continue connecting artists and collectors through the CGC In-House Private Signing events. Get ready comic fans because CGC is thrilled to announce that the incredible comic book penciller Humberto Ramos will be joining our In-House Private Signing lineup!

In addition to signatures, Humberto is offering Remarques (Spider-Man only) and colored sketch covers (torso-up). The Remarques will only be Spider-Man (no other characters will be drawn), and they are limited to the first 100 submitters. The colored sketches are limited to only 10 and will be drawn from the torso-up, of the requested character. (No Venom sketch requests, please.) See examples and pricing details below.

Humberto has worked as a penciller for a number of publishers like Kaboom, Boom! Studios, DC Comics, Marvel, Dark Horse Comics and he even co-founded the imprint Cliffhanger alongside comic book artists Joe Madureira and J. Scott Campbell. At these publishers, Humberto has worked on many titles, including DC Comics Flash spinoff Impulse, Marvel's The Champions series (which Ramos co-created with writer Mark Waid), and successful runs on Wolverine and X-Men.

But many know Humberto for his notable work with Spider-Man, on titles like The Amazing Spider-Man, The Superior Spider-Man, Peter Parker Spider-Man, The Spectacular Spider-Man and The Amazing Mary Jane.

In addition, Humberto also has a creator-owned series, Revelation, which is a six-issue sophisticated murder mystery miniseries published by Dark Horse Comics. Humberto is currently working alongside friend and writer, Skottie Young on the Marvel smash hit Strange Academy.

“We’ve had a number of submitters ask for a Humberto Ramos private signing, so we’re elated to get this signing off the ground for his fans!” expressed Brittany McManus, CGC’s Signature Series Director. “We’re also excited that he is offering his Spider-Man Remarque and a limited amount of his colored sketch covers. This is going to be a great private signing!”
