A screenshot of the guidebook for the Goblin's Tarot in a two-page spread. The first page features the art of the King of Coins, the other side features the sketch of the King of Coins at the top of the page that fades into the card meaning below it, calling the King a Practical Genius. The card art depicts a large spider-folk being under lamplight being brought gifts and offerings by a waiting queue of people who wish to pay homage to the king in his beneficence.

Black Raven, a superhero in black with a raven-like knight's helm on, punching his way through a bunch of dirty low lives.
Blue Bird, a super hero in a tight blue body suit with black shoulders, a yellow armor plate around his chest, and a helmet with white ridges around it is racing through downtown Denver among the cars.
A set of four enamel pins on their matching backing cards. These seasonal pins feature a special seasonal spin on the Publishing Goblin's Goblin head logo. The Spring Pin is designed to look like the goblin is made of a tree coming back to life, with a bird's nest on top. The Summer Pin is designed to look like the goblin is made of sand, with a blue bucket on their head, a shell on one ear, cool purple lens sunglasses, and a couple crabs! One in the goblin's mouth, the other hanging off their ear in place of their earring. The Autumn Pin is designed to look like a jack-o-lantern, with a thick twisted stalk on top and candle flames aglow in their eyes. The Winter Pin is designed to look like a snow man, but a goblin instead, complete with a top hat, pipe, carrot nose, and coal for eyes and mouth.
Two detail zooms on art prints with text overlaid. First is the text BLUE BIRD in blue over a zoom in on the Blue Bird superhero, running quickly through downtown Denver with speed lines trailing behind their bright blue and yellow costume. Second is the text BLACK BIRD in black and purple over a zoom in on the Black Raven superhero, punching his way through some white supremacists in his dark, black and purple costume. His bird-shaped helmet is stark black, with a purple motion line dragging away from his purple eye lenses.
