What a Dre Wants (August 2024)

The only thing better than donuts are cards with donuts!

Wow, it’s almost September! And that means something extraordinary. If you head over to https://patreon.com/jeffmay, you can sign up for a tier that lets Jeff send you cards from his breaks in the mail! It turns out I’m a member of this tier. Jeff does his best to customize these for each subscriber. However, the easiest way to help Jeff is to comment either in the Patreon DMs or the video about what cards you want. Let’s quickly review August, and I’ll give you my list. Also, do you see something I’ve asked for but you want? Let Jeff know. If you’re on the right Patreon tier, it’s yours!

I will briefly recap the month and then ask for some cards I want and some you may want. Some new rules: I’m limiting myself to 2 cards a break. That may be 0 if I’m not hugely behind a set, but for the ones I recommend to you, it’ll be 2!

Last Week on I Must Break You

Here’s a quick recap of what Jeff was up to on Wednesday this month. Also, Jeff opens things on Friday on “Jeff May’s Mailbag” if he gets things in the mail, which he did this month. Sometimes, he gets things he can give away, and he usually still opens cards. I’ll leave that as homework if you want to watch it!

08/07/2024

A mystery guest showed up for this episode, and Jeff opened some fantastic New Adventures of Batman Cards from 1996. Remember that messed up episode where Poison Ivy made a fake family — hey Jeff and Tom talked it if you didn’t — well, you can get it in card form, yay!

8/14/2024

Some fantastic art cards for various Star Trek properties in the 1993 SkyBox Star Trek Masters Series. There’s one card with Riker we particularly like. Lots of good Jeff voices if that’s something you enjoy!

2024 Topps Chrome Star Wars! Jeff was quick to jump on these; my go-to research site, “Cardboard Connection,” didn’t even have stats up. A Fiona Shaw autograph is possible, but did Jeff break one naturally? Tune in to find out!

08/28/2024

Jeff cracked open the excellent 2022 Upper Deck Marvel Beginnings Vol 1 on the last Wednesday of the Month. In part thanks to the great work of Jeff’s Cool Friend TJ Shevlin, this set is a popular one. I’ve gotten some cards from it before, so are there any new ones? You bet there are!

What I (Dre) Want!

Mystique Base
Jubilee Base
Rancor Keeper (Danny Trejo!)
Wicket!

Want my logic? Why not!

  • As you may learn on other episodes of I Must Break You and I Must Dre’K You, I’m a huge Rogue fan. I have some of the good Rogue cards from this set, so how about her adoptive mother, Mystique?
  • I also like Jubilee cards, and while I have some from this set, I don’t have a base!
  • Danny Trejo in Star Wars? Yes, please!
  • I’ve been a big Wicket fan forever, and I even chase autographs now, so why not get the base, too?

Cards You May Want!

The tragedy of collecting cards is how much extra stuff you get and how you must start limiting yourself. So, while I may recognize a card is great, I may not have the space or desire for it. But I can still point them out!

ImageCard w/ Link
Red border Carnage
Rogue w/ Donuts (Best Rogue ever!)


Count Dooku
Mayfeld Refractor (Bill Burr!)
Riker trombones Troi
Sherlock Data and Geordi
Matches Malone
Hanging Punisher?

Wrapping Up

All right, go forth and select your Jeff May Rookie Card Tier Cards, or sign up at https://patreon.com/jeffmay if you haven’t! As we’ve been talking lately, your best bet to “win any tie breaks” is to comment on the videos themselves. It helps us, helps you, it’s a win-win-win!

Until next month,

Dre
