Ok then, I will bring my Ebas sketchbook. Would be wonderfull to get that signed. And also will ask to make it personal to me. (Thanks for the idea Richard) This is my first convention éver, so that is why I ask the newbie/noob questions. My first signing ever was with the team for Storm with Romano, Jorg and Rob. That was awesom! Too bad the writer had backaches, but I got his signature a few weeks later, so the team was complete. And now, some signatures from more peeps, who have greatness *ranting like a high skool groupie* who are so "up there" for me, that I find myself being very nervous.

The past couple of years more and more artists have seen sketches being sold online for loads of money and that hurts them both emotionally as well as financially. They also see "fans" with 20 prints of one comic, coming in for a signing...same feelings! I love a signature and a sketch but I ALWAYS bring along my sketchbook and NEVER do I have more then 3 comics to sign!!! And I ALWAYS let the artists personalize ("to boomvavavoom") signed comics and sketches!! That personalizing makes the artists in return feel more sure that the sketches/comics will not end up at Ebay, but to REAL fans! So I kinda hate the buzzards who come in with 50 comics for someone to sign...I hate those people for a lot of reasons I already mentionned but ALSO because of the fact that 50 signed comics cost a lot of time if only for ONE person, whose only goal is to make MONEY with it!! Hate them!! I fully agree! I always have sketches and prints dedicated to me and my wife, who's also a fan (which makes my life a lot easier *LOL*). Personally, I believe artists could easily discourage these practices by only offering sketches if they are dedicated. Mmmm... I've to admit I always have a lot of trouble to limit myself when I bring comics. I certainly don't sell them (in my opinion, a non-certified signature only adds a personal value and no economical value to the comic. For older comics, it might even decrease the value of your comic), but I simply can't choose what to bring. For Ebas I managed to stay around 10, which is usually my goal. But for Michael Golden I simply can't decide what to bring.

If I get 1 thing signed by any artist, I am more than happy. One special signed autograph can do more than 50 regular ones.

That is the truth! Or should I shout 'Amen' now. I bring my Ebas sketchbook and hope for the best. If I get it I am very happy. The rest is just gravy.

Is there a chance Eric Basaldua comes again to facts (this year or a next edition)? At least not this edition. Maybe in a couple of years.
