Todd McFarlane Teams Up with Whatnot to Auction off SDCC Booth Pieces
LOS ANGELES, July 21, 2023, (VSNewsNetwork.com) - Todd McFarlane, comic book legend and co-founder of Image Comics, has partnered with Whatnot, the largest live-stream shopping platform in the U.S., to host a unique live-stream shopping event. The event will feature an auction of pieces from McFarlane's booth at the San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC).
The announcement was made during SDCC International 2023, where McFarlane debuted his Whatnot channel and revealed his "Buy the Booth" auction. The booth, designed to be disassembled into collectible pieces, showcases visuals of different versions of Spawn, McFarlane's acclaimed comic series. Each piece will be personally signed by McFarlane, providing fans an exclusive opportunity to own a piece of comic-con history.
Speaking on the partnership, McFarlane said, “Teaming up with the Whatnot crew to interact and auction items at this year's SDCC seemed like a perfect time to have some potential fun. I'm looking forward to seeing how all of this turns out and possibly doing some even cooler stuff moving forward with Whatnot.” Chansler Poole, Head of Collectibles and Comics at Whatnot, highlighted the excitement of bringing a unique opportunity to their community during one of the biggest events of the year.
