Bagley!! over Bendis!

An instore at a comic store without a light box out front presented itself with the opportunity to collect the signature of Mark Bagley, artist of such comicbooks as New Warriors, Thunderbolts, and most impressively, Spider-Man.

In the line around the store, wedged between a slathering mess and an unkempt hippie reeking of fanboy sweat, the movement of the queue moved fairly smoothly. Two items and no more, photos with the man optional.

A lot of the guys had the red cover version of Ultimate Spider-Man #1. But, not to be swayed by any sort of logic—the comic is supposed to have at one stage hit the $500 mark—pulled out the rare white cover version. One previously signed by series writer Brian Michael Bendis. Bagley was about to sign over the top of Bendis! only to pull a stop to the heart skip and mark Bagley!! just under the writer. Two down, one to go.
