The ComicLink Focused Auction contains the largest selection of signed comic books certified by CGC and CBCS that they have ever offered in a single auction. There are many rare signatures and signature combinations. The comic book portion of the auction, which began closing earlier this week, continues closing through May 14, 2024, followed by an original art session which closes on May 15.
In addition to many popular comic book creators that often sign valuable comic books, like Stan Lee and John Romita, there are examples autographed by celebrities that rarely sign comic books. This includes signatures by Harrison Ford, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Keaton, Sigourney Weaver, Danny DeVito, Jerry Lewis, and Haruo Nakajima (the man inside the Godzilla suit in the first 12 movies from that series), as well as classic TV stars like Adam West, Burt Ward, and Yvonne Craig, and literary figures like Stephen King, Harlan Ellison, and George R.R. Martin.
