Have each set been spoken for?

awesome!

Wow those are really nice. Are those signatures really on the comics themselves? It is a small miracle that you can hand a book to someone, have it signed and it get back in your hands in that nice of condition.

There are risks.. but there are those that handle the books on a regular ...

Where did Lapham appear at?

He was at Phoenix Con back in May

Now if I can only get BWS :hope:


BWS will be a miracle. If you can manage his sig, you are officially The Man.


I've had the opportunity to purchase a couple BWS SS books (EW #1 and Solar #10) but the asking price was just way ...

Sweet!

Maybe we can help each other out in getting some more CGC SS books. I'm reading up a little bit on the CGC board about this. I also learned that Desert West Comics help collectors in getting sigs as well. Anyone used them before?

I definitely would love to get more key books signed.

I ...

Congrats on the Lapham sig's. I think his is pretty hard to get.
Thanks! This is the first time I've seen him making the convention circuit so I was excited that I was able to get him.
Here are the 3 I ended up getting.

A board member helped me out in getting a few signed back in 2009. Here's my favorite:

Unity #0 Red CGC 9.8 SS. Signed by Jim Shooter & Janet Jackson on 2/7/2009 at the New York Comic Con.

Thats a shame... I'm trying to get high grade SS books of all the keys. For the most part I've only been able to get either Shooter or Layton sigs on most books but I finally able to get David Lapham's sig this past summer on my Harbinger #0 pink, #1, & Rai #1!

I've noticed the cgc census holds on average five books or less for many valiant key issues in the higher grades. Any one
have any perspective in why this is so? Rarity? Lack of interest?

From the auction:

Still...there are only 6 copies that are Signature Series, and there are not likely to be any more for quite some time. This copy is, of course, a 9.8, signed by creator/writer Jim Shooter, and colorist Janet Jackson. Three of those 6 copies were obtained by me.

Because of Jim ...

My nearly complete Valiant CGC SS of Pre Unity #1s.

Speaking as a prospective buyer who hasn't gotten a copy yet, as much as I want one 500-600 is more than I can afford.

Ultimately I'd love a 9.8 SS version. I have a blue label 9.6 that I'm waiting to get signed and there is always a change that the resub will come back 9.8

Ultimately I think the ...

Untapped market?

I thought maybe that but just can't buy it with websites like these with scores of Valiant collectors

Good luck with those BWS sigs!

Had an opportunity to snag Solar #1 with BWS on it but just way too much scratch for me to afford.
I do have a copy double signed by ...

Checking through the census there is on an average of 5-10 copies of each of the Valiant Key Issues and not 5-10 per grade but the total amount of copies if I include grades 9.4 and above.

Lack of interest? Rarity? Now with everything going on with VEI and Shooter it may become more difficult to ...

Unity, shadow, magnus, solar

Thanks, Valiant is what got me into seriously collecting comics in the first place so they are my first love.

Looking to complete my collection of #1 Pre Unity issues CGC SS
This is a definite shot in the dark but hopefully I can complete it. I have both Solar and Magnus and a lower grade X-O but I'd like to finish this with all 9.8s

My ongoing search consists of
Rai #1 CGC SS 9.8
Shadowman #1 CGC SS 9.8 ...
