Nice, that's the only puzzle I did for this set.

That Lak Lim is insane!!

It's always nice to get something special from an artist I've met

What makes the Lim sketch even more amazing is that he didn't use the whole card - 21 characters and every one recognisable

Says the bloke that got one of 17 Milo Ventimiglia (Peter Petrelli, Heroes) autos at the Comic-Con raffle and...one of only 10,000 Shum 'Star Wars' sketches

Latest pulls. Just waiting for two boxes from Miss Lizzy to see if there's enough there for a master set, or if the redemption gets sold. Favourite here is the Lak Lim with the insane detail in such a small space. Special mention to Ted Dastick Jr. for the puzzle yet another superb case

what do you still need for a master?

Got one box on Sunday.

LNTRN-06 - Saint Walker
WIP-1 - Catwoman

The usual high-ends - Acar, Perna etc I have got 5 boxes on their way to me, so I'm hoping...

A bunch of the mid range artists are pretty rare too - such as Cline, Kadar, Sobol, Treece.... I wish they'd release numbers.

I did finally open my second case. I'm very pleased I did as the sketch content was really rather good Strictly speaking, this is Case 2 + 1. After double and triple checking the dud box in my first case and sending off all the required paperwork to Cryptozoic, I finally went through the remaining unopened packs in the other eleven boxes and found an extra sketch in one of them :!: It appears first in this set of scans. After that, the pulls appear as they came out of the boxes. The 8th box in this case also had a bonus sketch :

Achilleas Kokkinakis, Christian Thomas, Jonathan Racimo
Unknown, Adam Talley, Brian Turner
Andy Price, Scott Rorie, Dennis Culver
Dan Schaefer, Dan Smith, Sanna Umemoto
Lynne Anderson, Gilbert Monsanto



If anyone can help me out by identifying the Starfire artist, I would appreciate it.

So I opened a few more boxes (no surprise there, since DC is my real favourite). This is what I got:

David Castro OMAC / Ian Yoshio Roberts Zilius Zox / Lak Lim Arkillo
Brent Engstrom Batman / Wilson Ramos Jr Superman / Art page redemption card R5



The Roberts and Lim lantern sketches are both brilliant. However, I'm not a fan of either character so I haven't decided whether to keep them. My first Batman sketch. And of course the redemption. I'm very happy I opened these

I finally got my replacements for the two missing sketches from my case...




With all due respect to the artists, I would have almost been better off saving the postage on the materials that I had to send to CZ.
Not that I was expecting Glebe/Perna/Acar type stuff but I am fairly sure that I could draw that Deadman by Christian Thomas (and I fully accept that I absolutly SUCK at art).

Hm, still waiting for my tracked package of stuff to reach Cryptozoic but seeing these does not fill me with high expectations over what I will receive as a replacement for my missing sketch Still, one can but hope

I received a package from Cyptozoic yesterday containing my oversized sketch card. They also sent back my voided redemption and a congratulations letter.

Here's my Benjamin Glendenning oversized Superman Sketch (R44 according to the letter)

Here's my latest three. The Lak Lim 'Batman' is quite a contrast to the multi-lantern card I pulled.

Very Nice - Really like the Wonder Woman Sketch

I got 1 box & here is the sketch I got.

Tough call. Brainy is blond, and Beast Boy is red (not green) in the New 52.
