Hi, all. Planning on doing a Series 2 of Off the Mark-et. Any interest? I'll try to keep the price down. Of course, Covid-19 will delay anything. Here are a few. No timeline yet. Let me know!

Interested? You bet your gooney bird I'm interested! Bring it on, please! I'll be waiting for it with bated breath!
I've only got one request: please do keep the price reasonable for those of us who are unemployed.
-
It's about time, I can't wait to see the checklist
-
I'm in!
-
Count me in!
-
I'm in.

-

-
Mark me down as a yes, Mark! Tried for a palindrome, but fell well short.
-
Definitely in for seconds!

‘Work Doh’, that’s awesome. Sometimes not following the traditional approach to Wacky parody creation (i.e., looking for a rhyming word for the product name) can lead to a much funnier idea, and this is a good example.
-
Thanks for the great response!
-
Just tell me when and where to order and I'm in!
-
One question, Mark: are these also going to be based on rejected Wacky designs?
-
Those three are great! I'm in!
-
Take my money.
-
I will have to take a set or two as well :-[
-
In!
-
I'd like a set!

I’d be interested.

Me, too!

Count me in. Thanks Mark.

One question, Mark: are these also going to be based on rejected Wacky designs?
Yes. Most of them are rejected WP designs. I still have plenty and could continue to do sets.
Thanks, everyone, for the enthusiasm!

Mark, got another question.
You have "Throwback Thursday" Off the Mark comic strips which feature your rejected Wacky designs. Do you remember what the date was of the first such strip? In other words, how far back does the concept go?
-
It looks like July 9, 2007 was the first time I used a rejected Wacky in Off the Mark. iTombs Gift Card.
I used to run a week of them at a time, and now I run them singularly, but not as Throwback Thursdays.

3 Sketches with $45 prepaid orders is quite the bargain!

I agree, Mr. Parisi must have done good OFF THE MARKET research.
-
If I buy 17 sets, am I guaranteed to get ALL the cards?? :P
-
The only guarantees in life are death and taxes.

I still have a few Series One left. I only did 50 sets. They are $55 with one color sketch card.
You can add two more sketch cards (there are black, blue, and red sketch cards) for $10 each.
So $75 (or $20 more) would include all three.
For Series Two I'm doing 200 sets.
In case anyone missed it, Series Two has:
33 base set
3 bonus titles (one that's really cool!)
Hand-numbered title card
4-piece puzzle
9-piece puzzle
Checklist
1 watercolor/ink sketch card, (3 if you preorder)

Thanks Mark! I purchased both sets in separate transations.

I've had questions so I want to clarify.
For Series One:
$55 with one sketch card.
You can add two more sketch cards (there are black, blue, and red sketch cards) for $10 each.
So $75 (or $20 more) would include all three.
Series Two:
$45 for pre-orders and includes with all three sketch cards.
(Price increase once the set is done.)
Hope that helps. Thanks!

Preordered! Can't wait

Mark,
What's the progress so far on this series, if you don't mind my asking?
-
I believe the printing is done, or about to be. Then all I have to do is pick it up, collate, do the sketch cards, packaging, postage

Mark,

These look really good from the previews.
Very nice.

Thanks! Getting close. All preorders will be $5 cheaper, plus come with 3 sketches, instead of 1,
Here's another preview.

Cool! I just got my Series 1 shipped to me this week to tie me over. Every parody is superb as well as the sketches! Thanks, Mark!

Thanks, I appreciate that! Was going to ship them together but didn't want to keep you waiting.

Got mine today!! What a fantastic surprise!! I need to order more pages and binders :]

Yay! I sent a few orders out, but still have most of them to do.

Does anyone know who James Chebalo is? I need his address to send the set. Thanks!
-
PM sent
-
Everyone, thank you for your patience. It's fun, but a boatload of work to put these sets together, with collation, sketching, packaging, etc. Next week is my target for sending the rest of the preorders out. Thanks!
-
Thank you Mark for doing this!
I got mine in the mail today. Very nice! I can't wait for series 3.
-
Just received my set. As expected, very good!!
-
Great set. Very funny and fun!!!!
-
Mark, I take it that you got my PM about the set.
I'll say it again, it was excellent! I can't wait for Series Three!
Two questions: you told me once that iTunes Mummy Card from Series One was the first one that you ever did in the comic strip of these rejected Wackys. Is the release order of the cards in both series the same order that they appeared in the strip? And are the ones in Series Two also rejected Wackys as well?
-
received mine as well. Fantastic and fun set! Thanks so much for putting these together!
-
Thank you everyone for the positive feedback! It was a lot of work, and continues to be a lot work.
Incidentally, this set would not have happened without Paul Harris so he deserves some love!
There's a Series 3 in the works.

Thanks!
Series 1 is, I think, basically in order of publication. There may be discrepancies. Series 2 was more random.

I received my Off the Market series 2 set and just wanted to say thank you to Mark for doing such a wonderful job and for making these available. Your work is fantastic!

Got mine today. Great work, again. I think I might like this set more than the first!

I got mine this week. Nicely done!

Mark is too kind, I just was more of a "runner," as I'm a bit more closer to civilization that he is, way up
near the NH and Maine border LOL.
And I'm ready for Series 3, bring it on, brother!
-
I received my set today as well. This is a great set with lots of fun gags. Congrats on a job well done, Mark!

LOVE LOVE LOVE MINE!!!!

Thanks, everyone! One of the bonus cards is actually a sticker. I included two so you can stick one if you want.

How much is a set now after the preorder? And is there a limit? I have been so crazy busy that I didn't put in my order yet!

I know what it means to be crazy busy! A set is $55 with a sketch card, shipped. I'm not sure what you mean about a limit.

Dav Pilkey is a big Wacky fan, and now he also collects Off the Market. Here are the sketch cards I did for him.
