Stolas from Helluva Boss posing in 3 outfits that emphasize his chest plumage in place of cleavage.

In front, he smiles confidently at the viewer as he trails his fingers barely-contained chest feathers. He is wearing a low cut blue shirt with ruffled hems, and a beige satin skirt.

In the middle pose, Stolas laughs happily as his feathers and yellow floral sundress are blown about in the wind. He holds his skirts down as they billow out around him.

In the back, Stolas smirks down at the viewer as he stretches upwards under bright club lights. He’s wearing a black lace crop top his feathers spill out over, ripped shorts, colorful eye makeup and bracelets, and he is accented with several pieces of metal and leather: an o ring choker, a belt, and a thigh harness.

Ok, fine

There are 3 cards in the whole set worth anything, not 2

My bad

Baksy (he/they), artist from Cleveland, OH @tokensbybaksy.bsky.social · 1h

Very nice
Im glad they brought the bus back for electric

Baksy (he/they), artist from Cleveland, OH @tokensbybaksy.bsky.social · 1h

Punk is $3

When the pack is $9, thats not value

There are 2 cards in the set worth more than a pack, thats it

Baksy (he/they), artist from Cleveland, OH @tokensbybaksy.bsky.social · 1h

I got a spectacular, a bordless one
Thats $5.50

So, is the judge blocking layoffs....a bad thing to folks on NewsMax ?

They...like people getting fired?

Baksy (he/they), artist from Cleveland, OH @tokensbybaksy.bsky.social · 3h

Me, in a thread about #mtgxspiderman:

There is no value in this set

Some chud: thats not wizards fault, they dont control the price market

Me, looking at #mtgxfinalfantasy and #mtgxlordoftherings , mh1,mh2,mh3, the masters series:

no, but they do know what good cards are, and these aint it, fam

Baksy (he/they), artist from Cleveland, OH @tokensbybaksy.bsky.social · 3h

Im not expecting 1 for 1 value, ya clown, im expecting a minor return on investment

I can buy a mh3 pack for $9 and have a good chance at something relevant

This set was made with collectors in mind, not magic players

Baksy (he/they), artist from Cleveland, OH @tokensbybaksy.bsky.social · 3h

Did you read that i have seen over 2 boxes open and not 1 card worth $6?

Im not talking about minor inconsistencies, slight lapse in value

This is consistent worthlessness on premium pack prices

Mh1, 2 and 3 were premium packs with premium value, there is NOTHING in #mtgxspiderman
