Jackson posted these up recently, another project of his on one of the burners perhaps. I like how he's trying new styles. Every artist should try new ways, easy to get into a pigeon hole and then things start to get boring.

This is the least excited I've been for a Jackson teaser. Having said that I can't wait to own these.

I like this deck a lot, real cool

I'm wondering if this is a design for the USPCC themselves (like the Civil War decks were)?
Maybe other designs too (start of a series) based on actual card game names?

That would make a lot of sense.

Yeah I was thinking that myself, got to be something for USPC.

Nope this deck is not for USPCC.

I like the chalkboard feel of the graphics.

Ah man, I loved playing crazy eights. Curious to see what the cards look like.

Well it looks great anyway Jackson.

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!

Sorry that's the first thing it reminded me of.

Really digging the style!

This deck looks really cool I will def pick 2 up ( if im lucky enough before they sell out), when do you plan on releasing these and are they going to be very limited?

Damn Jackson. I know this deck is better than any deck the 808 Club can produce hands down, but it's better to evolve than devolve. YOu can do better. Your spade looks a bit Hairy Potterish...

AHHH Sprouts! Who let you out of your cage. Let's see "your better"

Oh crap! you caught me in the edit phase. I know your just playing right now. Once you settle in Austin we will see your real work.

I like the vintage look cool deck

I like this a lot ! Pretty bold and original

Love this style, reminds me of my Marc Jacobs deck, crazy is definitely the right word !

Busy month coming up.

Loving the modern Aztec-Mayan vibe. That chalkboard style - textures and all... WOW!

Aint that the truth. It's going to be a wild ride from here to the end of the year I think.

Id like to see Jackson complete the other 2 or 3 projects he currently has before launching another one

Has he ever not produced a deck that funded? I think you can rest easy Victor

It's growing on me. Only change I would make is put the small right handed spade on the KoS on it's side and put a small "K" before it. Maybe, left handed ppl could have an advantage. Of course, the spade index would have to be black.

Imagine if every business did this? This statement should be true with people without a proven track record, but King's Wild has one. I think he should have a schedule and just release a new deck every 3 months, regardless if they have been delivered. As long has they are transparent and fairly accurate about their delivery dates (they are) multiple projects on the go isn't a worry at all.

It's not a worry, just don't see why not deliver on a couple before taking more of our money. No reason he needs to launch another project with 3 incomplete ones.

It's a "strike while the iron is hot" kind of thing. It would seem playing card collecting is dwindling, shown by the evidence that many collectors are refining their spending habits (some dropping collecting all together) and quite a few well designed projects struggling to reach their goals.

If you doubt he will deliver, then that is up to you. I'm sure you have more than 3-4 Kickstarter pledges going on at the same time, right? There is a far greater risk at some of those not delivering than 3-4 Kings Wild Projects. Just think of them as separate pledges, and your panties won't be as ruffled.

The reason he SHOULD launch more projects, is because people want them, they fund, and he gets money and makes a living, in order to keep going and making more. Seems like a win-win, more quality cards.
