They're die cut and comic backs, that's cool. Are they wax packs? I kinda like those two, but I am an easy critic. Compared to the Im card (that earthquake one) that was released ahead of the adamgeddon set, this makes me hopeful.

Hey Luis, Tony here. Long time no speak. I'll support whatever you do. I tend to prefer old school Pound style, but not so much just the non background type. I like the Dead Ted or New Wave Dave or more recently Orange Julius, where the character is front and centre but there is something else go along. Either way I'm in. Sorry I haven't been in touch. No longer at my previous email. Good Luck.

I generally try not to comment on art as everyone has different tastes, and also I can't draw for s**t. But when I first saw this I didn't believe it was actually a GPK card. I still am not sure I believe it. Are these cards still selling for $10 each?

As a long time watcher of the cheap toy habit but not collector, I think the idea to make the names consistent would be hugely helpful. I defer to your opinion and voted neon blue, which makes sense since as you stated it would be in line with the other colour names.

Luis, if you yourself or a couple of artists did a kick-starter or something I would definitely be in. My top end would probably be in the $100 range or so for a 30 - 40 card set. I'm not sure how feasible that is. I guess I could stretch it depending on the time of year.
I tend to like a Garbage Pail Kids type banner but am not married to it. I have no desire for chase cards or bonus or anything. Packaging doesn't matter. It would be nice to have them be CPK parodies but even that is not a requirement if the art is cool and the gags are funny.
I'm sure whatever you came up with would be of great value.

Hey Luis, It's Tony from Toronto. Good luck on the up coming arrival. Happy to see you putting out the best GPK stuff on the market as always. We just had our #3 Nov 21. I'v probably slept a total of 50 hours since that day. Knowing your mind you'll likely turn that kind of insomnia into the craziest GPKs we've ever seen. Keep on truckin buddy!

I was never a fan of cheap toys, up until I got some of the new minikins for my little boy. He can't get enough and neither can I, so yes give me more!

Wow Luis, That is a very personal statement. I can relate with a lot of it. I think many people do. It's like I said I respect you because what you are doing is hard. I work 6 or 7 days a week generally over 60 hours and have 2 kids under 3 years, but my life is easy compared to yours. I live in Canada, so the health insurance thing is not even an issue. Ironically I ride my bike to work every day, but my trip is 6.5 miles (10Km)each way. 23 miles is nuts. I do it because I like to bike and yes drivers are F'ed up and I have actually been hit twice. Killed both bikes. Miami must be expensive. My family used to visit Miami beach every summer, it is probably my favorite place in the states. I also found it funny that you would choose invisibility as your super power. I always said I would choose invisibility too, but for nefarious reasons like robbing a bank or general mischief. I don't know where you got the idea that GPK fans hate you. From what I read on this forum, that could not be further from the truth, and there will always be haters and trolls, don't let them crush your spirit. You seem like a really good guy, I'm happy things are starting to come around for you. I will continue to support you in any way I can.

Thanks for the response Luis. It felt a little fanboyish (which I guess it was, because I am a fan)I was hoping it would make you feel good about what you do. I'm sure it's not an easy or secure life and that is why I respect you. I've always opted for security especially financially, but the world needs more people (artists) like you. Best of luck buddy!

Hi Luis, I check in to the UG every day mostly just to see what's up, and never really comment. However, I wanted to say that you are probably my favorite artist at this point. Not just the GPK stuff which I think is awesome, but everything. I think what you are doing with you life is really cool I wish I could do that. I'm not some great art critic or anything. My wife is an artist, I tend to like weird stuff especially Dali. As you seem to be aware people love what you are doing, I wish you nothing but the best, please keep it up.
