Well, I would think that this type of project could be managed in such a way to allow everyone to get in on it.. I hope that the members that are consistently 'active' will be allowed in.. :thumb:

I chose 60 to stay in the spirit of the VfVSS projects so that members could continue collecting the number that they have always had. If the demand is there than of course we can make more.

The reasons this is a great project (in my opinion):

Great original concept (I can't wait to see the re-do of the covers),

Consideration of everyone's needs and desires to keep their current # (mine is #51 BTW :D),

MOST IMPORTANTLY, $$$$ to find a cure for CF (a chance for a normal dude like me to get a feeling that I am helping someway, somehow making a difference)

And of course, an amazing assembling of talent.


To all involved = :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I agree. With the last CF project, I think we found out that 60 is a high enough number to please the masses, at least at this point. And I have to tell ya, this years CF VfVSS has been hard enough to find 60 books of any substantial worth AS WELL as a super cool book for The Alyssa Book has been hard enough on it's own.

Right now I agree with 60 being the number.

I am really excited about this! I can't wait to see it. And I'd also like to not only thank Dellamorte for putting this project together, but also all of the people who are going to contributing to finding a cure for CF!

So.. where do we set ourself up as having a permanent number??? Id like one.. I may not post as much as some but Im on here several times a day reading, laughing and posting..

Some help?


I think this project is going to be excellent!!!! Im very excited.

I wonder if someone has the know-how to set this file up in such a way for us to take it to our local printer and print it up in hard copy>???? Im considering doing that with the Secret Weapons Project.. but Im not sure how to proceed.. maybe the preinter place will do it for me?? Not sure..

Some people have had a # for fan projects for a long time (I'm #18 since the Magnus 0 VcVSS) some have jumped around a bit. I always try and get the number to the person who collects it, it can be a pain since some numbers are somewhat shared by multiple members.

Since each file needs to be numbered and personalized I'll ask that everyone who is planning on being in just post here what number they have from previous projects and perhaps we can sort out a bit of the numbering issue before things go crazy (I hope) Saturday night.

So I'm #18
Zach (daydream) will be missing for the sign up and has asked for #33

I am afraid I will be late for the sign-up. I do hope for #7.

Yeah, I was very happy to get it done in time for this weekend, I wasn't going to go up agains San Diego so that would have pushed us back another week.

Hopefully this gives the ValiantFans something else to talk about at the con.

I don't get it. If more can be made past the 60, why wait to do a sign-up? Am I not undertanding something correctly?

And since peeps seem to be throwing out numbers already, you all best stay away from #9. :)

Because sign ups are fun. Lets crash the board in the name of fighting CF. :thumb:

I am bummed that I cannot make it this year... that means missing out on sketches (especially the Neal Adams sketches) and Mark Sparacio lithos for the fund raiser that I usually snag. :(

Me too. :(

I really enjoy talking with, and getting tips from, other artists at the con.> Getting all the sketches last year was great. :thumb:

This looks very cool, and for a great cause...I'm in! I just hope I'm around in time to get my name on the list (it IS Saturday night, after all). Just a suggestion: after the initial numbered 60 are spoken for, how about still making it available, but un-numbered? That way, it's still special (and limited) for the first 60, but you're not limiting yourself to the potential extra money you'll be able to bring in for CF. Just a thought...
