Stan Lee – Holding The Line At $299.99 (UPDATE)
I once presented two hours of QVC in the UK for Nick Barrucci's Dynamic Forces, selling signed comics and the like to Britain on Boxing Day, the day after Christmas. The times had been changed and, while I was watching the Lord Of The Rings at the cinema with the family by mobile phone's voicemail was getting fuller and fuller.
On exiting the cinema, I had to pretty much run across six miles of London without public transport to get there in time. I'd have got a taxi, but it's not like I was getting paid, it was just an interesting string for my bow.
Anyway I discovered I'd got in a little trouble for selling a signed Stan Lee item by pointing out that Stan Lee was rather old now, so you should probably get these while you could. That was six years ago and Stan Lee is still going strong, and seems to be the hardest working man at comic conventions he attends.
Still, his remaining time is valuable. Which is why Dynamic Forces in now selling copies of Fantastic Four #587 signed by Stan Lee for… $299.99 No, there isn't a missing decimal point.
Dynamic Forces have a nimber of luminaries signing copies too, at a variety of price points.
A Joe Quesada-signed Fantastic Four #587 for $69.99
The tie-in Amazing Spider-Man #657 signed by John Romita Sr for $69.99
And a copy of Fantastic Four #587 signed by the actual artist Steve Epting for $29.99
And next month they'll have copies of Fantastic Four #588 signed by Jonathan Hickman for $29.99 and by Stan Lee for $299.99 again.
If that's what Stan's signature is valued at, one signature could pay for one night's hotel accomodation at San Diego…
(UPDATE) While this is the recommended retail price, this does include the 60% that Diamond will take as well as the fee paid to the signing creators. Some retailers will discount, cutting their own margin, such as Midtown. And Dynamic Forces do have first prints, without signatures, for cover price…
