Thanks for looking.

Whew--here are some more scans. By the way, to confirm what I understand ti be others' experiences, my two archive boxes had okay cards but no rare artists.

Thanks again for looking. Feel free to contact me if you have any trade ideas for Iron Man cards.

You absolutely have a nice collection there!! Congrats!! I've got my eye on one of them, I'll have to find you something.

Here are my favorite sketches

Avengers1
Avengers2
Avengers3
Avengers4

Great to see all the images.

that martinek thor is so good its scary. congrats on that. Thats one of the best sketchs by any artist overall from the set, that ive seen anyway.

Barobehere asked me to post the scan below for him. Enjoy!

Nice cards. Love the Frampton Submariner.
Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Zhamlau, that scan does not do it credit. The stars in the sky are somehow spray painted on and the level of detail on Thor is unbelievable. I have yet to see a better card in this set.

nice ones

Just cracked my other archive box, here are the ten. I think the Welborn will be the only one I will keep, so any others will find other homes Little help identifying the Rubenstein and the Engstrom, as I am by no means an avengers expert, I assumed the Rubenstein is Kang, but I could be off in left field

That Welborn is nice, I can see why you'd keep it. I guess that pretty much proves that the 10 sketches in the Archive boxes are all from artists who did 300+ sketches (except for Texeira who returned his too late for inclusion in Archive boxes). With only around 25 archive boxes it probably would have been possible to have 1 artist from the under 200 list, 2 from the 200-300 and the other 7 from the 300+ list without affecting the over-all odds for boxes noticeably. There were , after all, 10 artists who did under 200 so 1 Ian Dorian and Frampton and 2 or 3 from the others probably would have been a good idea.

They're
Wasp, Hellcat, Invisible Woman
Black Panther, Mockingbird, Scarlet Witch,
Wonder Man, High Evolutionary, Kang
Hulk

(Couldn't tell which was the Engstrom)

Nice cards!! That Invis. Woman is worth keeping!

Those are in fact nice cards, congrat's!

Here is todays pull 02/06/2007



Tony Perna 250

Can anyone help me identify this artist?

Just figured it out, its Jim Kyle.

My latest pull:

Sweet card, it looks like somebody is about to be clobbered

It's indeed a sweet card, but I'm selling it to buy sweeter cards... (With Elektra )
