Comic Con Autographs?

Not sure where to post this so posted it here so this year will be first year going to Comic-Con and I was wondering how the autographs work for example if i wanted to get something signed from Kevin or Peter do I have to pay for their autograph or is it free? Also will they sign anything you have or does it have to be something purchased there at the Con? Just curious if anyone knows how this works thanks.

I've been to Supercon and Megacon and all the media and comic guests charge money for autographs. At least $20.

Some will charge more like $50 or even $70 if they feel they are more famous. I know Stan Lee and William Shatner charge a lot for an autograph.

They either give you an autographed poster or if you bring something with you, they'll sign it for you like a book or dvd box.

The price can also cover a picture with the guests....unless they charge separate for that; some celebrities do that.

Bring cash though; cause they will only take cash as a form of payment.

I have gone to the Heroes Con for years now and seen plenty of A-listers. It differs for each one. Neal Adams ask for five dollars an autograph so he can fund creator chairities. A few others charge between $5-$10. While Stan Lee, a pass has to be purchased for $55. While some like Michael Golden, Nick Cardy, and others are free. Prints for most of the artist are $10 while prices vary for commissions. Which Con are you going to attend?

I met Peter in 2008 and unfortunately only Mike Dooney makes the rounds of Cons. I will see him on Friday! I know the Mirage gang sell print posters with thier signature for $5. Dooney's prints were $10. Sketch is $50 a character. I never met Kevin though. Someone else that has met him at his two con trips San Diego and New York can give you the remaining information you need. Though you can go up and talk to them for free. Some like Neal Adams have roped off lines and you can only get one or two lines in. Ducan of IDW I believe makes the rounds as well. So be on the look out for him too! Hope I helped.

Peter will not be at Comic-Con. Kevin will be; he doesn't charge for autographs or sketches.

Everyone at the con has a different autograph policy.

Just be reasonable. The line is going to be very long, so have respect for the people waiting behind you.

Yes, usually. His daily schedule varies, though. (No, I don't know what that will be.)
