Nice to see a DeKraker sketch not ruined by his giant signature in black ink, as has happened in the past with his sketches for Marvel Masterpieces and the Batman Animated series. That Alfred card has a more muted signature and greatly benefits from the result. Hopefully, he'll sign all of his cards that way from now on.

I'm loving the Scarecrow and the Glendenning Batgirl. Also the Engstrom Penguin. All very nice!
Thanks I seem to be attracting the Penguin and Scarecrow sketches.
Haha, true! They're nice, though. And, you finally pulled a Batman!

Finished sorting the inserts from my first 2 cases.
Parallel - only able to complete 1 set Carnival of Criminals - 4 complete sets, 15 extras Batmobile - 4 complete sets, 12 extras The Bat Cave - 5 complete sets, 4 extras

How close to the second parallel set? Are they approximately one set per case? My cases should arrive this week and if the parallels are seeded with high enough frequency, perhaps we can balance out each others spares.
I might add that the Cryptozoic website is, as usual, apparently incorrect. The checklist makes no mention of parallels or printing plates and lists the Carnival of Criminals (or Circus of Villains) as 1 per box, but I gather they are 2 per box. I am very happy about the additional content, but is it really that hard to provide information? Together with the lack of sketch card numbers, it is extremely frustrating for the collector.

I think I'm probably 4 or 5 cards away from a second set. Opening a third case now, will have to see where I end up after I sort everything.
My two and a half cases. No redemption cards and no printing plates but the extra sketch per case seems to be standard.
First case sketches:
Camera - Tweedledum / Moura - Batman (Dick Grayson?) / Shelton - Nightwing DeJarnette - Maxie Zeus / Richard - Commissioner Gordon / Duron - Great White Shark?
Borgonos - Batman / Shane McCormack - Bruce Wayne / Pronovost - Grundy Wheeler - Batman / Ahmed - Catman / Torrance - Hush Fraim - Hatter
The Shelton Nightwing is amazing and the only one I will be keeping. I have no interest in the villains and I am trying to restrict myself to 1 or 2 of each of only a few characters.
Second case sketches:
Dominguez - Robin / Clayton McCormack - Two-Face / Boatwright - Scarecrow Duron - Dragon / Treece - Commissioner Gordon / Shelton - Robin McKee - Joker
Treece - Robin (Damian) / Camera - R'as al Ghul / Lagunsad - Joker Fabul - Ivy / Maell - Joker / Cook - Ivy Very heavy on the villains so no keepers. The Shelton and Lagunsad are my favourites.
Third half case:
Bulda - Joker / Pace - Joker / Wheeler - Joker Phillips - Batgirl / Moura - Question / Chuckry - Azrael Goulart - Bane / Gorman - Batman Definitely keeping the Moura Question and probably the Phillips Batgirl and Gorman Batman.This message has been edited. Last edited by: tangent,
