I asked the Cryptozoic folks if they were going to have an off site shop this year and they said no. Not sure if they'll have any type of booth on the sales floor.

I don't see them listed. Bummer. I was going to send some cards to a buddy and see if he could trade for a couple of promos to finish off two promo sets. Also, this means there's a lesser chance for TWD season 3 promos. Perhaps at the Skybound/Image booth.

Has there been any mention from any card manufacturer about SDCC exclusive promos? the Con is only a few weeks away.

There will be a Mars Attacks #0, they posted it on their Facebook page earlier today.

And someone posted in another thread about 12 cards for the movie The World's End. Here's a link to the other thread:

SDCC World's End screening and Trading Card Scavenger Hunt

I think I also read some where that at least one artist will have a Mars Attack sticker. Not sure if it's exclusive but it's still something to look for.

We will be making some gift with purchase/promo metal cards for some of our clients at SDCC. I'll post more details when we have them in better order.

for anyone who has not seen these metal cards yet they are superb, you should definatly try to get these when you go to the show.

The Mars Attacks card will be part of the regular set-- card #0. Not a promo card advertising the series, but a story card with an exclusive piece of art and narrative on the back.

Can anyone here help me with this? I can't put my non-card collecting friends through another one of these.

Any word from anyone else, like Rittenhouse?

there will be Rittenhouse promos - don't know what though

As we did last year, we're going to try and keep a running list of promo cards (and other things that will be of interest to card collectors) to be given away at Comic-Con International. We've published the initial list here:

A Card Collector’s Comic-Con

As stated, we'll try and keep this updated as more information becomes known so keep an eye on the list.

There's some real interesting stuff there and maybe more then you'd think considering only two card companies or so are setting up shop this year.

Looking good. Just wondering and worried about any TWD and Grimm promos.

Same thing I was just thinking. If there are, hopefully they will be mass produced, like the TWD SDCC card was last year.

I'm hoping that somebody sells a job lot at a reasonable rate or the postage will stop me getting the RA/Breygent promo's

Yeah, but I was so worried. No word and they hit ebay pretty high at first.

In the article, it says that the Star Trek TNG promo will be P5, but the photo shows P4. Isn't it P4, the one that was supposed to be at Philly, which they forgot to bring?

The card is the P4 promo. It's been corrected.

I'm new to this site, but I'm old to the comic con.
Does anyone know which sketch card pros will be at the comic con this year?
Awesome! I'm excited about it!
Thanks, Terry

OOOOOh Person of Interst key cards .... I would love one of those. Also the True Blood promo. Can anyone help a poor geeky Midwestern girl out??
