It has a ratings button for the thread but not for individual posts.

For individual posts, we just call each other names.

We're going to start posting some of the cards, including the patches, medallions and more, on our facebook page starting next week, during Comic-Con.

Looks like most places are listing 'Invasion' at 64.95 a box.

They're heeeere! These are NOT parallels. There are indeed two different types of sketch cards...

got into this late but was this set put out in two parts? A limited set earlier this year and now the full release or is this a completely new and different set?

The red logo'd sketch cards are the regular version.

The green ones are "creator sketch cards" and are reserved for those artists we got to do sketches who also worked on the base set. Of the contributing creators, each will do a VERY limited number of sketches.

OK, Card Talkers
Back from Comic Con, and towards the end of the day, I went by the IDW booth and they still had the Mars Attacks Invasion #0 card.

The booth worker told me specifically to take the rest of the pile, and while I didn't want to do that since there still was a little time left in the show, I did get about 10 extra, so they are:

FREE

to anyone who wants to send me an SASE. One per Card Talker, please indicate your interest as a reply to this post.

You can include a top loader or whatever if you want to protect the card beyond the soft sleeve its currently in, but if so, you might put 65 cents postage on the SASE (instead of 45 cents), or you can just make it the regular 45 cents on the SASE and they may or may not charge you 20 cents postage due at your post office when you get it back.

The San Diego Comic Con is a great show, and I was glad to make it 18 in a row with this year. Thanks to Topps and the class acts at IDW for this nice giveaway, which I'm glad to be able to share now.

Sweet! They were out for the day when I finally elbowed my way up to the IDW booth on Preview Night. Would love to get this card from you. Please let me know where to send my SASE; my email address is in my profile.

Thanks chesspieceface!
