Yep, signatures pretty much always free. Don't worry too much about the sketching - signing a comic takes seconds, and there isn't an artist in the world who'll make you stand there and wait 20 minutes while they finish drawing something.
If you get to one of the comic guests and they have a queue of people waiting for sketches then by all means mention it because con etiquette dictates you go to the front of the line. Be sure to ask, obviously, but most people will just let you go ahead. Most creators follow this same rule that people who just want signatures shouldn't have to wait behind people who want sketches.
I collect artwork myself and will often wait a long time in queues, and can tell you that anybody who has a problem with you going ahead of them for signatures that take less than 5 minutes is an unreasonable and selfish dick. Them's the rules.
