April 2013 Promo Cards
A Big Thank You to everyone that has supported the show with promo cards!
These publishers are making every effort to get us promo cards for the show. When the cards are actually in hand, we will update this page with pictures. For any number of reasons, the promised promos may not make it for the show. Anything that arrives late due to shipping, approvals, or any other reason will be included in the next show's promo pack.
Marty & Boo's Cards
Marty and Boo started with an original take on the Alice in Wonderland story and turned it into cards with a focus on sketch cards. Look for the followup set Nevermore Alice Flux later this year along with other sets in the works like Angels and Demons.
They have provided us with 2 promos this show! An exclusive promo for the 2013 Island Dreams Charity Set and a promo for Nevermore Alice 2.

Largo Intergalactic ViE
Largo Intergalactic ViE has provided us with several promo cards for their upcoming The E-Mail trading cards. Some of these cards are VERY limited, so each promo packet will have 2-3 promo cards from the set of 5. In addition, it is possible that we may run out of these, so come early each day for the best chance.
