John Beatty, Acclaimed Marvel and DC Inker, Joins the CGC In-House Private Signing Lineup

In conjunction with Eva Ink Artist Group, CGC would like to welcome John Beatty to our growing list of In-house Private Signers. Since the early 1980s, Beatty’s clean, bold illustration style has been featured in a variety of Marvel and DC books, including Captain America, The Punisher, Secret Wars, The Nam, The Adventures of Superman, Batman, JLA and many more. Today, Beatty shares his passion for drawing via his YouTube channel with many sketch livestreams.

And because the fans have requested we will be doing multi-signatures with John Beatty, Mike Zeck, AND Jim Shooter. Or, if you have books that only Beatty and Zeck worked on, we can make that happen too. See more info below on the multi-signatures option.

“Wow, 2020! At the beginning of the year, I had plans, lots of them — conventions, commissions, continuing my YouTube channel, learning and making new things,” said Beatty. “But then along came COVID-19 and that changed everything, for me and everyone. I’m so glad CGC is giving creators and fans the opportunity to connect through In-House Private Signings, and I’m looking forward to signing those special books for you!”

For Beatty’s CGC In-House Private Signing, both free and paid CGC members can submit collectibles directly to CGC headquarters in Florida. CGC will coordinate with Beatty for the collectibles to be signed in mid-August.

If the CGC In-House Private Signing needs to be rescheduled due to show postponements or cancellations, travel restrictions or other reasons, CGC will securely store all submissions in its vault until the event can be rescheduled.

After Beatty signs the collectibles, CGC will grade them with expedited turnaround times of three weeks for grading or six weeks for grading and pressing. Collectibles are then shipped back to their owners.
