Over the course of his incredible career, Miller has made a powerful impact on the comic book community, working for a variety of major publishers such as Gold Key, DC and Marvel. He is perhaps best known for reimagining Batman as a dark and brooding hero in The Dark Knight Returns saga. In addition, he has worked on some of the industry's other top titles including Daredevil, Ronin, Sin City and 300. Miller recently illustrated Cursed, a novel that is now an original Netflix series. In 2015, Miller was inducted into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame for his contributions to the comic industry.

For this event, ALL CGC members, including free CGC members, must submit books in-person at the CGC booth #901 or the Signature Series Booth #4315 at SDCC 2023 by the end of the day on Saturday, July 23.
