This sequence from Marvel Age details the process. (I've deleted the somewhat belittling title of the article.)

Happy birthday, Martrese!

I met the delightful Martrese back when this issue came out and interviewed her for a comics newsletter. One day, time and Internet connection willing, I’ll finally get it up in my abandoned online archives. She personalized a cover for me and it’s among the few autographs I’ve ever cared to get.
That's fantastic! I'm always delighted to hear when people are kind and open to fans.
I don’t remember how the connection was made but she was local to Philly so she came into the comics shop where I worked to chat and was honestly as delighted herself with this strange little side gig as she was delightful.
I forgot to add that, due to Namorita’s concurrent name change, I titled the article “Bitchin’ Kymaera”. You’re welcome, everyone.
