Hello everybody. I want to buy 2 comics signed by the great Stan Lee and I would like to have your opinion on autographs.

Well, you came to the right place. If you're looking for authentic Stan Lee autos, these two would be best avoided. The first one is forged, based on an exemplar of the style he had already abandoned by at least 15 years prior to its publication, thus the style of the track is anachronistic to the item signed. 

The second item is the right age range for that style of signature, if an original comic and not a reprint (I can't see the whole issue). But based on the mashup of the characters within, I'd say the chances of authenticity are slim to none. Look at the way the n and l are pointing away from each other to that extent, and their distance. What is this? The Last Supper? One apostle leans on way and the next one the other? lol

pass on both. 

Thanks for your reply.

The 2nd autograph is from toronto in 2014, is it possible or I really have to avoid the 2?

 

I don't like either

The second one is from 2014? lol  The forger very loosely and ineffectively based his forgery on a style of Lee that Stan had abandoned about 40 years earlier! ROFL. 

When a signor has markedly changed the way he signs periodically over a wide swath of time, anachronisms will arise as in this 2014 "signature" based on a 1960's/70s style of handwriting. 

Usually, we look for signed items manufactured after the signor's death as one type of blatant anachronism. This is another. The forensics of the handwriting not matching the period of the signed piece.

I think you are best buying CGC signature series books as they are witnessed. 

I agree with the other members.  Both Stan Lee autographs are atypical.  If you are interested in purchasing a Stan Lee autographed comic, a CGC Signature Series is what I recommend.  Best of luck, Stephen.

Thank you all so I'm not going to buy it all.

have to agree with the rest
from what l can see (which isn't much being he signed in one of the areas that couldn't be any darker) looking at mine compared to this is wau off
