I received my copy of the book and my 6 packs of cards today.
The cards are very nice and sketches I got are all fantastic.
The book also has some great illustrations and it's fun to read
Poe's work again, many for the first time since high school! Smile
Rocket Ink Studios did a great job with this and I hope to see
more projects from them in the future. Here's my sketches:

Scott Rorie, John Boy Marroquin, David Day



Ingrid Hardy, Bruce Gerlach, Bill Pulkovski

Incentive Sketch by Tim Proctor

Triple-Frog - that John Haun sketch is awesome! And Greg, the Scott Rorie is sweet! Wink

Glad to hear that you received your boxed set and book. I'm also waiting on a boxed set and a book. I know that Bill said on his site that they were holding back card shipments on orders that included the book until it was back from the printers. This gives me hope that I'll see mine in the next few days. Thumb Up

Just had a message to say mine has shipped today. I was waiting on a book too so maybe that was the issue.

Just got mine today. Unfortunately the book got damaged in transit (back cover is torn) due to shipping in a lightweight bubble mailer and no cardboard backing. But it is still readable. Would have been ticked, though, if I'd shelled out extra to get a sketch on the inside cover.

The good news is that the cards arrived intact and I am pretty happy with the sketches I pulled - and really pleased with the hand-painted Tim Proctor incentive! Clap

I will post pictures once I get them scanned but over-all very happy with the set. Oh, and I got one of the tee-shirts, too. It's very cool! Metal

I think Unknown is John Boy Marroquin.

Really neat set and pretty happy with my pulls (sorry that I didn't re-size them before posting):








Kelly O'Hara, Rich Molinelli, Ted Woods, Nina Edlund, Scott Rorie and Tim Proctor

I usually don't get excited about "cute" but I love the Edlund! Also, you can't really tell by the scan but the O'Hara is painted in pearlescent paints. And I love the hand-painted Proctor! This was the box incentive just an awesome card. Metal
