Cryptozoic Archer Trading Cards Fall 2013

[GregZakwin]

Slowly but surely! It will get even smaller as the week progresses

Those last few rare artists might be decades-long chases at this point though lol...

I don't see a lot of Hack sketches out there, so I was not going to pass up these three APs. Pam's back tattoo is just a fantastic part of the show, so grabbing a sketch that features it is long overdue!







The artists I'm still chasing (* for a rare artist):

April Babcock*
Chad Hurd*
Greg Kirkpatrick
Jennifer Montes*
Juno Sanchez
Sam Ellis*

That Pam sketch is awesome! Haha

[GregZakwin]

Thanks! Love unique sketches like this, I've only seen a handful of back tat ones.

Thanks to Mike (cubby) for working with me to knock another off of the list. Also finally picked up the Binder Exclusive Standee.

I'm sure you know this but he has some of the other artists you need like this one. Do you just not like the sketch?

Given the amount of time you put into this, I would probably just work out a large deal on those off ebay.

[GregZakwin]

The link comes up as "bad request" -- I know he's got a Juno Sanchez or two and I'll likely bite the bullet on that before too long. I was never in love with Juno's work, don't hate it by any means but they are all so similar. More than I want to spend considering, although if a Krieger popped up or a more unique character I might jump fast.

I haven't seen a Montes/Babcock/Ellis in ages, if ever, available.

Oh, how I wish!

yea that Pam one is great, very nice pickup - I wish I had the stamina to do something similar as Archer is one of my all time fav shows but am happy living vicariously through your collection!

[GregZakwin]

Lol thanks man, it's a quest at this point to find any new ones but I've loved every minute of it! Dropped some other things from my collection to compensate -- focusing on Archer has made me super happy.

Huge thanks to fellow Archer fan and board member Zoop for sending me this awesome Kimberly Dunaway Katya sketch out of the goodness of his heart.

I swung a deal with Clayton to pick up the 8 (!) AP's he had. I didn't even know artists could have that many -- always thought it was 6 max -- so I learned something new.

I've never seen the Krieger snorting MSG off of Pam scene on a sketch card, so I was pumped to snag it. My first of Seamus; I love the Ray rollin' dirty and partying scene in "El Contador" turned into a threesome sketch; Krieger is my favorite character so always looking for him, and modding the gun while on coke is a legendary scene; plus Rasta Pam!

Clay threw in a surprise with my purchase....a custom Archer!

I bit the bullet and snagged a Juno Sanchez, as well as two other fun ones. As always, thanks to Mike (cubby) for the assistance!

I'm down to the four toughest artists in the set. If anyone ever has a Babcock, Montes, Hurd, or Ellis they'd part with....

[Sterling Archer]

Just so you know what I have so you can maybe figure how many are left out there.

Ellis (3) Archer Lana and Woodhouse
Babcock (2) El Contador (Cyril) and Duchess
Hurd (3) Archer, Archer with hat and mustache(probably a "Randy") and Woodhouse
Montes (9) Cyril Pam and Cheryl in space, Archer looking through a scope, Ray, Malory, and Krieger, all holding pistols, Archer as a child with stuffed alligator, and my favorite gut shot Brett signed by Neal Holman on the front

So maybe Jen Montes did more than 12??? It seems unlikely that I have 9 of 12.
We know some of the show artists did more of course.

Also Mike(cubby) and others if you can list what you have it might help round out the list of what is out there in PCs. I am just talking about these last 4 rare artists.

Also, for the record, while there are some seasons of the show that are better than others, I love them all. I like this last one and I will be sad when they are truly done.

Since I am not leaving the house for the rest of the day I can wear my International Secret Intelligence Service t-shirt now. (Inside only shirt, not ENOUGH fans to wear that in public : )

[Sterling Archer]

Greg,
I think you can't just call him Seamus.

It's like in baseball.
You can't just say Tim Wakefield or R A Dickey

It's always knuckleballer Tim Wakefield
And knuckleballer R A Dickey

As he has always appeared as an infant

I believe he should always be referred to as

The Wee Baby Seamus

LOL

[GregZakwin]

I honestly don't know how I forgot to add in Wee Baby!!

A genuinely unforgivable oversight on my part lol. We technically do see a non-infant Seamus in Season 13 when Archer hits up Trinette's brothel for help. His picture is behind her on the shelf and he's a Cyril doppelganger of a teen!

But our tattooed friend will always deservedly wear the Wee Baby moniker around these parts!

Appreciate the list Dan (and again, the Sunico/Vasquez assistance is forever appreciated!!)

neon_tiger all but disappeared but I know he had quite the stash. Messaged him here and on eBay but unfortunately no response. If anyone else wanted to post what they have from these Big Four, I certainly wouldn't complain!

My first of Rodney (a Kris Justice Production) and I don't think I've ever seen another of him. Thanks cubby!



Also snagged this truly phenomenal Jeremy R. Scott offering of Pam -- in Sterling's prep school lacrosse shirt while eating strip club waffles -- from eBay. I don't recall seeing another sketch commemorating her sexual escapades with Archer.

Into The Cold was spectacular! I think it was an amazing ending and it was so good I was convinced Adam Reed wrote the episode. Loved seeing Rip Riley return and Katya was incredible, although that surprise was spoiled by the promotional poster.

With Archer now officially over, I felt it was an appropriate time to debut these gorgeous Chad Hurd Artist Proofs I picked up earlier this year from Chad himself. Persistence paid off after contacting him a few times, and he was so kind.

Whether I ever track down a Babcock, Ellis, or Montes remains to be seen, but I will continue to search until the end of time.

For anyone reading, drop a comment....would love to hear from more people like the good old days!

Awesome cards Greg!!! Thanks for sharing.

The show may be over but the collecting goes on.

I hope to post some updates of some of my expanded sets of some of my favorite artists when things settle down for me in the future.

I always like returning to this thread to see all the amazing art work and would like to thank all of the artists for their contributions. Well done all!!!!

Thanks to all of you for sharing over the years as well, especially you Greg for repeatedly breathing life into this space.

I consider myself an art collector now and I am proud of all the great works I've been lucky enough to acquire.

Dan

[GregZakwin]

Appreciate the kind words Dan! Can't wait to see your collection showcased once again, it was always truly amazing to behold!

These beauties have definitely given me a new appreciation for art, and I wish there had been a second release for Seasons 5 and up. Oh what could have been!

Peer pressuring everyone else to share their favorites, or their entire collections even!

A HUGE thanks to Mike (cubby) for stumbling upon this Sam Ellis and making it available to the masses. I spotted it on eBay and did not hesitate to snatch it up very soon after it was listed.

I don't remember the last time I saw an Ellis (it must have been that guy on eBay selling the print of a sketch for like $250 and then mailing out a printed copy, if memory serves ). We all had a nice laugh at that stupidity lol.

I'm down to just two!!!

Amazing, congratulations, that's a spicy meatball to snag. I couldn't do $300 even though I'm also missing Ellis and when I've never seen one that's probably a fair price. I've been meaning to get around to cataloging my collection but I'm afraid if I did, I'd end up like you just kidding. My real fear is that I end up selling off some of them which has happened with my star wars and marvel cards.

[Cujobyte]

Found a sketch card from this set but it's by a "Jufabul"?? PM me, could email you it but don't think it's either artist you're lookin for lol.

I somehow forgot to post this pair of Matt Hebb Artist Proof sketches I picked up directly from Matt himself. Very nice guy, and I love them both!

Krieger is my absolute favorite character and that Len Trexler scene is stellar. This is my first solo sketch of Archersaurus!
