Marvel's Agents of SHIELD comic book/TV show promos
Hey guys- heads up- I just found out about these yesterday but there is a promotional set of five trading cards being included with Marvel's 2015 calendar that would be given out at your local comic book shop. There are cards for Melinda May, Leo Fitz, Jemma Simmons, Phil Coulson and Skye which depicts the actor on the front of the card and a comic book rendition of them on the reverse. Skye is the hardest one to obtain it seems. Cards are attached to the calendar with a light adhesive that is relatively easy to pull the cards off from. I will post pictures later.

They did, but it escaped in comically easy fashion.

I assume he isn't in the comic.

My local comic store would only let me have one calender. I got the Coulson card.

Pretty neat that they do these. They did one a few years ago with Avengers Photo ID cards. There were several different members and a blank one (so you can put your own photo on it, I suppose).

Is anyone else besides me having difficulty finding these ?

Saw 1 set on ebay--that's it

Went to a few comic stores and they all told me that they had to order a certain number of SHIELD comics to get these calendars with cards, and none of them ordered anywhere near as many as was required to get ANY

I just sent an email to my comic store. Let's see if having the world's largest comic book store nearby will pay off.

Well, he had a few extra calendars but they all had the same card I already got. Oh Well.

Yea these are a real pain. I managed to get 3 different ones but the packs usually only have one or two different cards in them. Not all stores got them around here but I have not given up.

All the packs we had at my job had all five cards, but Skye was only one per pack of 24.

Frank,

My not so local comic store is now on their 3rd order of the calendars. I asked the owner to save a calendar with the Skye card for me. Some of the closer stores only ordered one pack of 24 or none at all.

the comic store I went to said he wasn't allowed to order ANY calendars as he had to order a certain number of the SHIELD comics to be allowed to do so, and he ordered few comics

Can you see through the packs what cards are inside ?

Went to a local comic store--only allowed 1 calendar per customer. Frown

The packs contain the calendars, the cards are within the calendar a few pages in, it is random if you don't open the calendar to see, but from the packs my store got- Skye was the top card and the Coulson cards were towards the bottom of the stack.

I don't have any more at my job, we gave all of the calendars out to our customers, though I was able to snag a set. I will post here if I come across another set though.
