The Walking Dead #1 Wizard World Nashville Variant CGC 9.8 Signature Series comic book, which has been signed by Nico Suayan, the cover artist, who has also added a piece of original artwork to the cover in the form of a Zombie head sketch!
This limited edition comic was only available at the Wizard World Nashville Convention in the US in 2013 and reprints issue #1. Only 20 of these issues were available as signed and sketched editions and this is #8
.
It has been professionally graded by CGC, the largest independent comic grading company in the world, and slabbed in a sealed protective case.
The grade is guaranteed to be high investment grade 9.8 (NEAR MINT/MINT) and this is a yellow label CGC Signature Series, which means that an authorised CGC representative witnessed the signing and sketching and this also acts as a Certificate Of Authenticity.
As soon as the comic is signed, it is removed by a CGC authorised party and submitted straight to CGC for grading and encapsulation, guaranteeing the authenticity of the signature and the sketch.
You can check the validity of this item, the signature and the sketch by entering the 10 digit number on the label at the CGC comics web-site.
There are no cracks on the case. Any glare is just the scanner on the CGC case, which can cause reflection.
