CGC Announces Second In-House Private Signing with Renowned Comic Book Creator Rob Liefeld
Posted on 2/15/2024
CGC Signature Series is thrilled to be hosting another exclusive In-House Private Signing with legendary comic book creator, writer and artist, Rob Liefeld, best known as the creator of Marvel’s top mutant superstars Deadpool, Cable, Domino, Stryfe, Shatterstar and Major X. He will be offering a limited amount of Chiseled Signatures, Remarques and Sketches for purchase. See pricing and details below. In addition to signing comic books, Liefeld will also be signing trading cards featuring his art for this event.
CGC will once again be offering the exclusive, limited edition Rob Liefeld custom label to commemorate this special In-House Private Signing. The label will feature Liefeld’s signature and can be purchased for an additional cost by fans interested in adding it to their Rob Liefeld submissions!
Liefeld’s 37-year career spans work on many of the industry’s top-tier comic franchises from both DC and Marvel including X-Men, Captain America, The Avengers, Spider-Man, X-Force, Wolverine, Teen Titans, and Hawkman. He single-handedly reinvigorated the New Mutants franchise, transforming it into X-Force, which launched with sales of 5 million copies. To this day, X-Force remains the #2 best-selling comic book of all time.
Liefeld started Image Comics with his fellow peers, launching new franchises such as Prophet, Avengelyne, Youngblood, Brigade and Bloodstrike. Recently, he announced that he would be retiring from Deadpool after spending decades working on the beloved character. Fans can watch Liefeld’s Deadpool in the highly anticipated Deadpool 3 movie, slated to hit theaters this summer!
