I have mixed feelings about sketch cards. I have a stack now but I have never bought one "out of the pack". I just keep the ones I pull. I DO appreciate the time and quality of some cards. A good card is a mini masterpiece. I have seen some sketch cards that bordered the ridiculous - ones from Indiana Jones and LOTR come to mind - the bay is littered with them.

For me, sketch cards are like autographed cards and costume cards. If I pull one, it's a nice bonus, but they're not something I try to track down. I'm more interested in the usual inserts (foils, etc).

dstrohmeng, I second that.

Sorry for Hulk or Bruce Banner or Grey Hulk, Savage Hulk, Maestro or Ricky Martin or whatever is in control of that mind.

You also not just say a Cook (or McHaley, Pence or insert name here______) should be worth less from the brand new set because they have done tons of sketches in other sets. Each set has a life of it's own and set collectors or new artist collectors can be fighting over the cards from THAT set and not others.

i agree,my katie cooks (with 2 vampirellas i just got,this years tally is over £4'000 ) are not investments for the future,i could never give most of them up,im afraid their coming with me

Put your e-mail address in your profile and I'll contact you. Then you can always remove it later if you like.
BUT, if you want to buy any of my cards, it will do you NO good. I don't sell my sketches. Well, a million bucks a sketch would MAYBE sway me....

Hrmm well a million bucks is a bit of a tall order but hopefully you'll be open to a trade instead? My email is in my profile, feel free to get in touch.
