MikeFitzWar of the Worlds: The Art of H.G. Wells - Series 3 (Monsterwax)
I received my preordered box last week.
The box breakdown is as follows:
4 complete base sets of 36 cards
plus 4 checklist cards numbered #/1000.
1 War of the Worlds Prize Card
(Redeemable for an audiotape of the classic
Orson Wells radio broadcast with the card
returned).
Complete set of 6 Promos for The Art of
H.G.Wells Series 1-3.
1 Card numbered BC-2 Which is a Background Card
discussing the pop culture impact of War
of the Worlds.
1 Artist signed sketch card numbered A3
I'm very pleased with this set.
The story is gripping. The art is very cool and at times awesome.
A terrific effort from Monsterwax!

MikeFitzI've tried Photobucket and ImageShack but have had no luck.
Between my messed-up scanner and the head-pounding aggravation of AOL, I'd rather people email me if they want to see a scan of the War of the Worlds sketch card I received.

MikeFitzOK - I hope I got this right.
Here's the War of the Worlds sketch I received in my box.
It's done in marker with silver eyes and tongue.
A cool effect.
Thank you for your suggestions and offers.
