Busted a case while I was bored at a show last weekend.
Odd thing was that I couldn't complete any of the chase sets. Missing 1 card from each. Will get around to posting a trade one day to round things out.
But I was very happy with the sketches

Received the incentive sketches today...
Was hoping for a DeLiz, but the Palmer Storm will have to do.

My two cases arrived. This is a fabulous card set. The base cards have excellent artwork and card stock. It would be nice to have more informative reverse, but they're still nice. All the insert sets are also great.
Even though I am strictly a DC fan and have no idea who many of the Marvel characters are, Rittenhouse does the Marvel sets much better than the DC sets (licensing approval I expect) and this X-Men set is exactly why I buy them.
On to the sketches (pretty much the order I pulled them).
I not only pulled some short run artists, but also several sketches that I feel are the better work of some artists. In particular, the Chandler, Mapa and Cook sketches are fabulous.This message has been edited. Last edited by: tangent,

The Justin Chung card is of Dazzler but I don't know the Castrillo.

I got two boxes recently. Pretty happy with the pulls.
Does anyone know who did the Deadpool sketch? I took the photo with Photobooth, so the signature is actually backwards.
Overall, I am pretty happy with my pulls. I was hoping for a sketch of the original five x-men (my favorites), and I am not really a fan of Apocalypse and Deadpool, but the sketches are pretty nice. I did end up buying an extra LH1, so that is up for trade for any other Legendary Heroes chase cards besides the two that I have.

Thank you goldenavenger! I like it. It's a very traditional Storm image.

The original is the best IMO... congratulations!

Possibly Tone Rodriguez - see the DC Legacy signature examples on my website for a comparison.

Since Justice League and Women of Star Trek keep disappearing into the future, I had to buy some more X-Men and picked up an archive box. Sketches are:
Dos Santos - Magik Ferreira - Archangel (X-Force temporarily got me back to Marvel, so I actually remember this version of Angel) Glendenning - Juggernaut (I really like the sense of power in this one) Goldberg - Logan Goulart - Warpath HDR - Magneto
Kong - Dazzler Medeiros - Mojo Merlo - Beast Molinelli - Havok Prince - Lady Deathstryke Rodriguez - ??? Watkins-Chow - Magneto Wheeler - White Queen (great intimidation in the look)
And the 5 Wolverine sketches:
Ault - Wolverine in Savage Land Campos - Captain America di Chiara - Hulk Ault - Sabretooth Fowler - Gambit
A really nice range of characters and artists. Thanks to everyone who helped to identify various characters This message has been edited. Last edited by: tangent,
