Visions of Freedom is a 39 cards factory set featuring all-new,
exclusive artwork from both mainstream and independent top-notch
creators, full-bleed images, UV-coating on both sides and signed cards
and "hot boxes" as bonus.
Text on the back of the cards is provided by Peter David, the logo by
Todd Klein.
The set has been produced by Ultimate Art to support the Comic Book
Legal Defense Fund's crusade to protect First Amendment rights of all
comic-book professionals for comic-book related censorship issues.
Ultimate Art donated 1,000 sets to the CBLDF, a $15,000 value.

Abby Denson and Michael Avon Oeming contributed two different cards
and, since nor them nor me could decide which one would end up in the
set, I decided to include a version in the even-numbered sets and the
other in the odd-numbered sets.

The production run is limited to 2,500 standard sets and 50 "Master
Signature" sets.
Standard sets feature 39 cards, 1:2 odd to find a hand-signed card and
1:20 odds to find a "Hot Box" (a mirror set printed on Tintoretto
watercolor board). $20.00, worldwide airmail shipping included.
"Master Signature" sets feature the same cards as the standard set,
only printed on Tintoretto watercolor board and hand-signed by the
respective creators, plus both variant cards and complete promo-set.
$60.00, worldwide registered airmail shipping included.
The set contains minor nudity, therefore a written (email) statement
--in which is specified that who's purchasing the set is at least 18
years old-- is requested. I know this is stupid, you know this is
stupid but, to quote Frank Zappa, "Hydrogen and stupidity are the two
most common elements in the universe".
