Signed Comics On eBay – Not Worth The Variant Covers They're Written On?
CGC has its own "signature series" to verify said autographs but often people have to go on trust. Scott Snyder doubts the veracity of this signature. But how far can you trust?

Champagne Supernova – Everything To Hate About Ebay
By Keith Champagne Fuck eBay. Like most artists in the funny book biz, once in a while I'll auction off a few pages of original art on Ebay; usually when I need some extra cash to handle whatever surprises life may throw at me.  Other times, my cocaine and hookers funds run low For whatever the reason,[...]

The same seller also has another copy that's already north of $160. Some people have received their £100/$150 copies (though many still seem to be awaiting theirs) but few have been sold on eBay, hence the feeding frenzy when a copy does pop up. After over thirty bids, one successful seller of the Complete Zenith Hardcover[...]

Okay, I so I initially thought that this successful eBay sale is something of a fluke An advance sale of  the 3D cover of Joker's Daughter #1, out in a week-and-a-bit, for $130.01. But there are three ongoing sales of Joker's Daughter, one at $62 with a day and a half to go, that I'm thinking[...]

Good luck to all bidders! Which would be fine if it weren't lost in all the cut and pasted Wikipedia text. Thankfully enough people did see it and junk eBay accounts have been used to increase bids to thirteen million dollars – of which the seller will receive none.

I'm told that after Bleeding Cool published the photos, the scammers returned to each of the[...]
