Brian K. Vaughan Signed Firsts: A Reference

Brian K. Vaughan (born 1976) is the most commercially successful independent comics writer of the twenty-first century. Saga and Y: The Last Man have collectively sold millions of copies in collected format, and Vaughan’s television work (Lost, Under the Dome, Runaways) has given him a profile beyond the comics world. He signs selectively, making signed copies moderately scarce.
