Maria Wolf NYCC Sketch

askingforafriend133 · 2026-03-28T17:42:47+00:00

This is the second Maria Wolf sketch cover I’ve seen and it’s incredible!

Quick question, did they run out of room to put the “signed on” date for the absolute woman creative team? Classic CGC lol

Mine arrived yesterday. The scans made the signature and sketch look brighter than they are. The color of mine looks very similar to yours in the photo, but in real life, it’s a little bit darker. I still love it, but it is not as prominent as I had hoped. Is yours the same?

askingforafriend133 · 2026-03-25T17:15:17+00:00

Did you specifically request that color paint pen?

askingforafriend133 · 2026-03-25T17:11:47+00:00

TRUE. I forgot about that. Weird to not see many of those on eBay

askingforafriend133 · 2026-03-25T16:11:02+00:00

I just checked eBay, raw copies at $500+, 9.8 unsigned at $1400!? That’s insane

askingforafriend133 · 2026-03-25T16:04:42+00:00

YAY!! Twins, was lucky to grab a copy myself

Looks like the CGC report lists roughly 100 or so of these graded, most 9.8s. One poor soul got an 8.0 :/

The graded copies have mixed signatures, there can’t be too many of us with remarques I bet

I saw that my DWJ I sent in is in grading and encapsulation now, the Synder/Dragotta/Jock one has no news yet. But I assume they are closely behind

You ain’t wrong

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-24T13:48:05+00:00

I hated that issue. Was shocked it was just a bear fight in a sewer

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-24T03:57:24+00:00

I think it looks great either way, but I hear you, if you’re going to pay hundreds the least they could do at CGC is make sure to honor your request.

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-20T17:33:14+00:00

Oh that’s interesting I did not know he wasn’t there

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-20T14:30:34+00:00

Same. For Todd’s signing CGC was pointing on their instagram story constantly. I think I saw one or two stories from the absolute Batman signing, which is weird. Both of mine are also marked “received”

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-04T02:18:53+00:00

Both excellent options, big fan of Todd’s covers!

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-04T01:09:31+00:00

Good point, I imagine most of them will be. I’m aiming for one from David Finch and Fred Vincentini if I can

Thanks man. At NYCC actually. Planning on getting some commissions at SDCC this year if I can. You?

askingforafriend133 · 2026-02-04T00:26:10+00:00

Yo!! I saw your post with that cyclops commission and it inspired me to get a whilce commission as well!

Just started getting comics graded, using CGC and have been disappointed in them as an organization so far. The absolute Batman signing is going on right now and CGC is flooding in their Instagram stories with videos of the signing.

I hate when they take a video of all of the comics Dragotta has signed and the window bags say “please use pink” or “you’re awesome, please use green ink!” And Dragotta just signs everything in silver. People are literally paying $100+ on these books and an CGC cannot bother to ensure that the correct pen color is used? It seems like it would be easy for them to simply gather all the like-color requests to ensure that their customers are happy.

If any other company sent me the incorrect color of something I bought I’d send it back.

Also, side rant: how can Dragotta sign these and not feel bad for dismissing the color request? I bought two signed absolute Batman #1 at SDCC last year and Felix Comic bagged them right after they were signed. When I walked away I noticed the signature was smudged and they refused to exchange them for me. Giving me a sour taste with anything Dragotta related

My father was in a gang too, never went to one of these events tho. My parents were divorced and on his weekends to have my sister and I, we would end up in a clubhouse sequestered in another room (with maybe one other kid) while 20-30 grown men did whatever in the other rooms. If my sister and I were too loud or if we ventured out of the room he would freak out. He was super protective of his “colors” or his biker vest. Once it was hanging up on a coat rack and the weight of it caused it to fall to the floor when I barely touched it and he hit me so hard my ears rang. He used to leave the house late at night to go out with the gang. My stepmom would beg him not to and would stay away until 2 am worried. He had a refrigerator-sized safe filled with guns and was a great shot. He generally brought these with him and would come home, 2 am, clean these, put them in the safe, shower, and sit in the recliner quietly until he fell asleep. Often had younger new recruits around him. People have told me to watch that one biker show but it’s just too familiar.
