Lovely cards, nice enough box with this month's issue.

But why no jokers? Will there be two or three "Joker" cards with a subsequent issue?

We got two Jokers with last month's issue - two cards with Jack Point, IIRC...

Ack. I completely missed those, but you're right.

Tharg really *does* think of everything. All glory to Tharg.

If I was being *really* picky, I'd liked a slightly more inventive card case design (some kind of Justice Department "health" warning, perhaps?) and a few more pieces of original - or rare - art on the cards themselves. As they stand, though, they make a nice set of playing cards & a most welcome free gift.

Personally I loved the box, wide enoug so that neither the cards nor the bow are damaged when packing

No problem with the size or construction of the box, Max, just a little underwhelmed by the box art - and even that's a minor complaint.

Thes are official Judge Dredd playing cards, so would a more fancy box break justice department regs?

Would have been nice if they were more like the bristol Charity deck 2001.

One last try....

That was well worth one last effort, Rufus!  Stunning!

Are the cards going to be for sale in the shop?  I'd love another pack.

I think the worst thing about the cards, which are a great free gift, is the font type face on the actual cards themselves.

I got 2001 Charity Deck of Cards, artist proof set, from ebay.

Anyone got the charity deck from '04 (i think).

The deck that has The Mighty Jocks HULK pic.

I have the original artwork (which is stunning) and would like a card to go with it in a frame.

Just one thing to add:

This deck of cards is the best free gift in 28 years of the prog and the megazine. They're lovely, they're decent quality and I'm actually likely to use them, rather than just leave them stuck to the front of the comic.

Whoever decided to give this as the gift, kudos to you.

I too love the cards - I'm sure everyone can think of a character that they'd like to see that isn't on them, or an alternative image for a character...well, that's fine...I'm sure we'll get another pack next year...are you listening Mr Meg Editor, Sir?

Come on, though - there must have been someone else out there that (whilst happy with their luverly cards) thought to themselves (out of range of Torquemada's Thought Police, obviously) "where's my fracking calendar?"

Bloody excellent free gift.  This thread merely exists so grumblers and whingers can 'name and shame' themselves.

Nah, you're quackers if you think that.

Yo!

You sir, are a total bastard!
I want that!

I like the cards, just wish they'd either been 'Justice Dept' type thing, or like the jpg. All they had to fo was cookie cut images to like like cards.
Grumble...whinge

The cards are cool.

For those who don't yet know, there could well be a small poker tournament at the next Dreddcon.

Watch the board for details.

It all depends on gaining a discreet venue, so we'll have to have a confab, Slips, a bit nearer the time.

We'll see how it goes.

I'm expecting to play poker with my Dredd cards sometime this week.

If I never mention it again, then... I fucking lost again.
