Outstanding! Thanks Topps!

I enjoyed the Mar's Attacks presence at SDCC this year. Too bad I can't attend NYCC, looks like I'll have to resort to ebay. Keep-um comming Martian Commander!

Topps has a pretty sweet offer for card collectors going to New York Comic Con - free Mars Attacks, Garbage Pail Kids, and Wacky Packages sketch cards done at the spot by some terrific artists at the show. Read about it on the blog:

Will have to try to score one of these!

Yeah, I would like to score one as well. I bet they get quite a line for these, especially on Saturday.

There may also be some surprise guest sketchers.

We'll also have the exclusive "Mini Martians" variant of IDWs Mars Attacks the Holidays comic with a cover by Mr. Giarrusso-- creator of the most awesome "Mini Marvels" comic.

An exclusive Wacky Packages Comic (#2!) will be there too, along with the ShopTopps exclusive Martian costume t-shirt just in time for Halloween!

Wish I could go!
