I received my Gremlins print today. It printed much darker and very muddy. Very disappointing. Anyone else think the same?

And yet people still buy it.
Hey guys, I'm just getting into buying prints, and I was looking to buy the set. Why is it bad? I realize there's the Stout print, but I don't have the kind of money for that, while I don't mind paying $100 for the New Flesh's Kill Bill prints. Thank you!

Was hoping there wouldn't be a print that I felt really needed Stan Lee's signature because $75 for that alone is a little pricey but the Drake Spider-Man was too good to pass up.

Run of 900. I mean, I like it because I'm an idiot who loves Spidey, but that stack could probably kill a man.

Yeah I don't care about the run size. I was just looking for something that I liked that I thought would be worth getting with Stan's signature. That print seems like a great combo assuming he signs in silver in the black space.

No, you can buy a Stan Lee sig add-on for a print for $75.

$75 is cheap compared to how much he charges for comics

I wonder how many prints will feature extremely poor sig placement?

We'll see. I emailed HCG and asked if he could sign in silver in the black area and they said they would do their best. I imagine Stan's a pro at this though

I traveled to Chicago C2E2 a while back to get Stan's sig on my Stout Guardians. After about 3 hours in line and $100 for the autograph he proceeded to sign right across Groot's face with a black sharpie and pretty much unrecognizable signature. Don't think I'll ever hang it now..

I picture this duke propped up in a chair with a machine (or "intern") moving his hand to sign all this fudge.
