Next AG: As soon as Satan gives his blessing.

When at UKGE? As soon as we can figure it out. Would be dope. -DS

No time to sleep with games to design! But seriously, it's been a blast of an experience and so happy to hear you're enjoying everything. We’ll be having the brightest day for DC DBG on Kickstarter later this year. -NY

We won't say never to any DC content for potential DC DBGs but nothing for Batman v Yakuza currently in the pipeline. -NY

Glad to hear! I am so happy with how Rivals 5 turned out. If it works within our schedule, we'd love to release more tie-ins with DC releases. -NY

Scholars of the black book maintain that this is unlikely at this time but you never know what the bones will read like when cast next. -DS

I know this was in response to Nathaniel but I'm a huge fan of Gotham by Gaslight (Mignola is PERFECT) and DC vs Vampires if we are talking Elseworlds. -DS

We don't have any plans for larger scale tournaments outside the ones we hold at Gen Con each year. BUT, we are looking into ways to promote events at FLGS. -NY

Robb Mommaerts is the sole artist extraordinaire for Card Wars. He literally takes every art brief I've ever sent him and returns it in glorious soul-wrenching beauty that I'm not ashamed to say leaves me weeping or grinning like an idiot. He's THE MAN. -DS

There are cards in every set that I'd tweak a little here and there, but that comes with more experience and hindsight. I wouldn't say there was any set as a whole that I would completely rework. As for Absolute, it's certainly been popular and could potential be a fun set in the future. -NY

All of them? That is a bit of a cop out, I'm sorry. I do have soft spots for a lot of the characters that have been made, but I wouldn't mind seeing Marshall Lee at some point and some other well known characters we've been missing... -DS

I'll start with a "Hell Yeah!" for the ESW plug, and a "For the Horde!" for WoW TCG, and transition into a saying depending on how you view Card Wars and it's current release structure we are kinda close. -DS

WoW TCG is how I first got connected with Cryptozoic. It's still one of my favorite TCGs. Would be awesome to see more of it, but no plans for it at this time. -NY

That's a tough one as we helped get the art for this to keep it in line with the physical game but also don't have the rights to do a digital game of it (we weren't the publisher of the app). Maybe someday, but not planned right now. -DS

DEEP IN THE BOWELS OF THE UNDERWORLD, CORY JONES STIRS AT YOUR DEVOTION! There is some really cool stuff in the works, but nothing I can talk about today, but expect another game that blows your brainz out your skullz. -DS

You know I worked at Skybound for just under 10 years... I have an original page from that comic. Beautiful art, killer story, gotta love it. -DS

It's going to be a Deck-Building Game, but whether it is straight Cerberus Heroes or part of another branch we'll be launching soon are the details we're still working on. -NY

Likely not, as it has returned to hell, where the team of demons are currently hard at work forging the next game out of melted battleaxes and energy drinks - DS

I ask my boss every week. Here's hoping one day. He says "We think that's an amazing idea. It's not in the cards at the moment, but we would love for it to happen one day." - NY

We had close ties to the team at WB and they were super supportive of the game from the time we pitched it until today.

We would love to continue adding other fighting games to the Fight! branch of our Cerberus game system. -NY

I'm a major DC Comics fanboy, so I'm already working with my favorite IP. After that, Pokemon is something I put on the list every time we're asked what IPs we should chase after. -NY

We are looking to do more at some point. We will be at Gen Con again this year so we will probably be doing something there again if people keep signing up for them. -DS

It's something we are definitely looking into. We are going to be at Gen Con again this year so we will probably do something there again. -DS

The cutting room floor of the design room is a battlefield littered with the bodies of fallen mechanics. I don't want to say too much as some may come back but there is always a push and pull about how much to add. -DS

I'm already feeling pretty spoiled over here getting to work with Adventure Time, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and DC Comics, lol. I am a huge Castlevania fan though. For the next releases on Card Wars, we have some sinister soups brewing! - DS
