PLANTATION, Fla., Oct. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alliance Entertainment Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: AENT), a scaled entertainment commerce and collectibles platform serving content owners, brands, retailers and fans across music, movies, gaming, licensed merchandise and collectibles, with proprietary brands, authentication technology and reach across more than 35,000 retail and e-commerce storefronts, today announced that its Alliance Authentic division will showcase an exclusive collection of Danny Elfman signed collectibles, alongside preserved vinyl records and collectible figures, at L.A. Comic Con, taking place October 30 through November 1 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

At Alliance Authentic’s booth (#1354), collectors will find something they cannot get anywhere else: five Danny Elfman signed pieces exclusively for Alliance Authentic, including The Simpsons Main Title Theme on 10-inch vinyl, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Beetlejuice and Justice League on LP, plus a Jack Skellington figure from Handmade By Robots. Each piece is limited to just five, and every signature is authenticated. The signed pieces are available only at L.A. Comic Con, with any remaining pieces offered to collectors registered with Alliance Authentic after the show.

The brand made its Comic Con debut in San Diego this summer, where Nerd News Social called it “the collecting platform for a new generation,” and appeared at New York Comic Con earlier this month, where Temple of Geek said Alliance Authentic “takes vinyl collecting to a new level.”

The booth will also carry more than 65 preserved vinyl soundtracks across film, TV, anime and games, from Spirited Away and KPop Demon Hunters to Scream, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings and more, plus preserved Funko Pop! and Handmade By Robots figures. Fans can step inside a nine-foot Alliance Authentic collectible box for a photo, and collectors with a registered Alliance Authentic account who take one get a free Handmade By Robots Scooby-Doo micro figure, while supplies last. Everything at the booth, including the signed Elfman pieces, is available first come, first served.

Alliance Authentic preserves the pieces fans care about most. Every piece at the booth, the signed Elfman pieces included, is curated, numbered, limited and sealed in Certified Uncirculated condition, so none ever reached a retail shelf. An NFC chip gives each piece a verified identity. Collectors tap the chip to confirm it, claim it, and keep its full history with it if it ever changes hands.

“We’re so excited to bring the full Alliance Authentic experience to the fan community at L.A. Comic Con,” said Jeffrey Smith, SVP of Marketing at Alliance Authentic. “Danny Elfman signatures on some of the most important work of his career, the week of Halloween? That’s incredibly special. If you love horror, sci-fi or anime, we preserved some of the coolest pieces out there for you. I can’t wait to see everyone at the booth.”
