Couple of things, first I wouldn't mind seeing a couple of cards based off of the Apocrypha or Early Church Fathers. Might be intersting. However, I'm not sure how Rob being Catholic comes into play. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against Rob or Catholics, and wouldn't mind seeing some cards from the Apocrypha, do I personally believe it as Scripture? Does the majority of the Redemtion Players? Could be a mixed reaction to this, like there was with Angel Wars. Don't mean to start a huge theological debate on this, least not here, but I'd kinda like to see a couple of cards from the books sooner or later.

In that case, it might not be a good idea to release the apocrypha as a "set" but rather release cards from the apocrypha gradually (Josephus and Angel Wars have already opened the door for this to happen).

...I know the words and hand motions to every Barney, Wiggles, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and Dora the Explorer song.

With those mad skillz it's not surprising that you have a hot wife!  ;)

The special ability NEEDS a shadow effect. Not just for looks, but I cant read a large portion of it because its light text on a light background.

Do you like the patented background?

I would make the background just slightly less defined. Blur it a little, as it takes your eye away from the main artwork a bit too much IMO.

Not saying its bad, its a little too busy looking though.

Also, a super easy way to get the shadow effect is... Duplicate the text, make the bottom layer of text black, and nudge it down and to the right a tiny bit. It makes a huge difference. Also, if you do go back in and fix that, I suggest putting the ability more towards the bottom of the image, so it can fill it from side to side.

Just a few things I noticed.
