What's shown is a very small sampling. Plus those two characters are not typically drawn a lot. Maybe you could get Rian on it, he single handily got dozens of artist to increase the amount of Squirrel-girl sketch cards drawn.

I also am waiting for Devil Dinosaur, Machine Man and the most popular, Human Fly!!!!!

I drew Howard the Duck & Man-Thing!

I can't see Human Fly appearing. If I remember correctly, that was a real guy and Marvel are unlikely to have the licence to him anymore.

Great job, I can not wait to see them.

I was going to ask, but decided to spend the time to find the answer. The release date is December 5th, 2012 in case anyone else wanted to know.

Unless you're talking about the super-villain!

I realised but I wouldn't have minded seeing it.

The checklist is up on Rittenhouse's site. It looks like the Bronze Embossed cards will be a tricky one to complete.

I'm sure you will see a Man-Thing soon.

You can count on it.

2 weeks until release.

2 days....

Although I don't collect many cards these days, I was very excited when I heard about this set as I pretty actively collected Marvel comics during this era. I wanted to get all the cards, so I picked up a master set and my girlfriend bought me an unopened box. I wanted the fun of opening some packs as well as saving some unopened packs for a rainy day. The sealed box was indeed sealed and I expected the sketch card to be in the box, but not in the packs. I've opened about a third of the packs and haven't found a sketch. In Rittenhouse boxes, are the sketches "free-floating" in the box or are they in one of the packs? I sure hope I find it in one of the packs, as I was really looking forward to it. I suppose I could contact Rittenhouse if there is no sketch, but I could be totally lying (plus I still want to keep some packs unopened).

If anyone can offer any info/advice, I'd greatly appreciate it!

They are in the packs. Keep opening!

As far as I know, the sketch cards are always in the packs. If they were free floating then any store owner would get the sketch before putting the open box out on the counter for selling packs.

Thanks, Batman and Goldenavenger! I can relax now and take my time enjoying opening the packs (and, I hope, finding the card soon enough that I can save a few unopened).
