Exactly this. I've met him twice and twice I've told him off. Last time was actually due to how he was treating someone else. He thinks he's more than he actually is. He charges for everything and actually thinks his signature is worth $1,000 a pop (it's not). He disappeared for a while after wrongly predicting that DC would be out of business within a year and fans rightfully called him out when proven wrong.
Good riddance.
