Non-Sport Update's Card Talk
Jun/Jul Issue of NSU

H_ToserJun/Jul Issue of NSU
I'm updating the website with the new issue of NSU tonight. Please see the cover below.
This issue shipped a little early so we could have copies on-hand at the Philly Show. With Philly having a Star Wars theme, it made sense to have the issue in-hand for the show.
We haven't had an original art cover is quite some time but we have one this issue. Grant Gould has created a really cool Empire Strikes Back cover to coincide with our 30 Years of Empire Strikes Back cover story and the new Topps Empire Strikes Back 3-D set. You can get the lowdown on the rest of the new issue's contents, including our four promo cards, on our
current issue page. Don't forget that you can click on the small promo card images to get a larger version of them.
Thanks.

Flag City CollectiblesAwesome! Still wished I could have been there. Had to sacrifice for Celebration V. I pray my issue arrives shortly even though I just barely got the last issue. Thanks Harris for resending. I pray this one finds its way to me!

RavenHad a lot of fun reading the article on the Crusader Rabbit cards, NSU should continue to do these research pieces. I didn't even know about the cards, but it brought up vague memories of the cartoon series that I had all but forgotten about. I didn't see it when it originally was on TV (I'm not THAT old), but I must have caught the reruns at some point when I was a kid because I knew the characters in reading the article. So thanks NSU for the trip down memory lane.

A_BiegelGlad you enjoyed it, Raven. Arnold Bailey is the card collecting crypt keeper around here; the CR piece was his idea and Roxanne just happened to have the cards we used for the print images. It takes a village!

BatmanCrusader Rabbit is a cool set, and very hard to find even single cards. Great article.

Flag City CollectiblesHarris,
I was wondering how come 5finity products are never discussed or featured or mentioned in the magazine. Even sadlittles cards are on the release schedule but 5finity is not. I know they are a smaller company but have quite a large fan base now and have had some major licenses this year including VOLTRON.

Hi Flag City:
We have written about both Sadlittles and 5finity in the magazine previously.
Thanks.

s8zaphodHi, small question. In the price guide under Paranormal Activity, it states there is a NSU promo for that upcoming card product. Did that already come out and I never got it, or is it coming out in the next issue? Thanks!

H_ToserHi s8zaphod:
There was a Paranormal Activity promo card in Volume 21, #2 (Apr/May '10) that was labeled NSU.
