Trading Card Game Based On Webcomics

The WAGON Webcomic Battle is a trading card game that revolves around many different webcomic characters and plot devices. At present, there are 11 different webcomics that have contributed to the game’s cards. Plus the Jenny Everywhere winners of the “Draw” to Win Contest posted on The Geek Media a few weeks back (first place shown at left).

The preliminary deck, Deck Zero, includes characters from Chooken, Prepare to Die, Roomies, Sarah Zero, Stridsparters, and War of Winds; had been out for several weeks. The games official launch decks, Alpha and Beta, are currently available for presale and will ship in October. Webcomics in these decks include NSTA, Ardra, P.S.I., The Best of What’s Left, Unamused Comics, and the 2nd and 3rd place Jenny Everywhere contest winners.

People who pre-order BOTH the Alpha and Beta decks, will get a bonus card, The Kitten of Chaos!

In addition to this news, the newly added Geek Media Affiliate, The Jenny Everywhere Shifter Archive, will be having a drawing to give away FIVE (5) of the promotional, Ultra Rare Jenny Everywhere card.
