This week's pick ups (through May 4th)

[weasel-king]

Lotsa very scattered themes this time around.

For some reason I never picked one of these up. Now the Mulder has a companion, since he was getting lonely.

Pure random--Dee Snider from Twisted Sister from a set I had never heard of, UD Spectrum.

A couple more X-additions from different movies:

Some autos for my Jericho Master set:

And one of the 3 Auto Pieceworks (only need the Skeet one--ugh...):

Some sketch cards from DC Legacy. First up is the Penguin-

Then a couple of Catwoman sketches:

Finally, some Women of Marvel sketches.

Firestar:

Jean Gray:

Invisible Woman:

Mystique:

Joe,

Thats some very cool looking Mail, I love the X-Files, and Marvel pick-ups. Awesome job... all this Non-Sport goodness is making me seriously reconsider my collecting habits.

Congrats and thanks for the Show :dance:

 

[HIM]

Damn..thats a nice Mystique!

Do you want one of the Catwoman prints I told you about in that other thread? I contacted the artist and she still has a couple left.

PS-You ready for the next X-Files set?

 

[Lakemichigan]

The catwoman and the women of marvel sketches are definatley nice:beer:

Nice stuff Joe, I'm a big fan of the Jericho and the sketches. At the rate you're going your going to dwarf my sketch collection in a few weeks!

Joe, another solid round of loot. I like the look of this year's UD Spectrum of Stars autos better than last years. I'll have to check those out.

Nice to see Gillian make an appearance.

I gotta ask, how good is that show Jericho? I missed it and have heard mixed reviews? I might grab the box set if it's decent (and I trust your opinion).

Very nice. What do those Marvel sketches normally sell for?

Barrie, I liked Jericho quite a bit. It took off well but got in a lull, and I found myself going "meh, oh well" when I missed an episode. It was sort of like a sin curve where it was up and down and up and down. It's future was supposedly always in question, so I imagine the writers were torn between trying to cram their story in--in case it was cut short--versus trying to write enough hooks into it to make it a sustainable series if it was long-running. The 2nd season was a btt of a let-down after starting off so strongly, but it was very short and was after the strike, and the writers knew it was over anyway.

It could have been a lot better had it's future not always been in question, but it was the sort of show that probably couldn't have been more than a few seasons anyway. It's at least worth it to rent the first couple of discs of season 1, if at all possible.

Scott, most of the Women of Marvel sketches I'm picking up for around $25-$35, give or take. There is the occasional $40+, but I cringe when I actually win those for some reason. All the Women sketches are color versus something like Marvel Masterpieces, for example, which always tend to go higher than I'm willing to go (hence why I only have two MM ones).

Not big on non-sports stuff but a nice haul for you.
