Oh, man! I'm so down for that cover. I'm a huge Hernandez Bros. fan. I need to finally pick up those early Love & Rockets issues.

I hope they sell them on the website like they did the Millionaire version.

Although, I did get some decent freebee copies direct from Valiant later on.

Hrm. Too each their own I guess. Not the art style I go for really. Reminds me of Mike Allred's work which I don't care for either. That's one issue I never have to worry about whether or not I should buy it at least. :thumb:

I asked and asked several times about this... I'm assuming it will be like last year and be $15-20 but I plan to buy this in bulk to get the best price like I did last year

CBLDF will sell them at other shows as well. You can usually find a stack of the book at their table up until they finally sell out... which seems to take a LONG time. They still have the Q&W variant at shows.

CGC provides a service to validate signatures. They have a witness that will verify the signature (or sketch) when performed at a con and then submit to CGC. You then receive a "Yellow Label" CGC book with a grade and notation of who signed it and when.

Interesting. Do they grade the signature as well? "With all due respect, Sr. Hernandez, I've seen you give a better signature. 9.4"

If I were a comics professional I'd take it as an opportunity to have some fun. I'd use a Sharpie to make a dot on the book and see if that was enough to satisfy the yellow label requirement. No? What if I turn it into a short line segment? Good enough?
