Maybe a little out there, but perhaps that isn't Dack in the feast of blood art?
Sifa Grent supposedly looks like Liliana and managed to get Dack to chase her to Innistrad. Maybe she changes appearance frequently? Maybe the art is Sifa as Dack?
Sifa doesn't look like Liliana. We haven't even seen more than a closeup of her face.
People have said that Sifa "resembles" Liliana. That is not referring to a physical resemblance. It means that the magic we've seen her use seems similar to something Liliana has also accomplished. Kept in spoilers for those who want to learn from the comic:
Sifa uses some sort of magic to make herself youthful. This "resembles" Liliana, who made demonic contracts to keep herself youthful.
For the promos: OP says that those cards are a pretty small incentive to buy the comics, but I think otherwise. If they prove to be on a very limited print run, they may become really hard to find and have high value based on scarcity only.
That said, the only one that interests me so far is Electrolyze.
i agree. Woohoo for electrolyze. definitely an old favorite! i know it probably means nothing but the choice of electrolyze makes me hope for a standard reprinting sometime soon. (if multicolor appears in 2013.......)
I think the biggest thing to remember is that with theese promos is They are afraid of printing another Mana Crypt. So the likelyhood of them printing anything rare, mythic, or brand new is close to nil. Of the 4 promo cards so far, they have all been uncommon, printed with rare color. As saddened as I am by this, I am not suprised in the slightest. A printing of a brand new planeswalker in new colors in a limited print run (inserted into comics) would make Jace the Mindsculptor's standard high of over 120 look like chump change.

Not if it sucked as bad as Sorin Markov and isn't legal in standard. Jace's price tag is because he is a powerful card and was printed in a small set. He dropped to a comfortable $50 the minute they banned him in standard.
Reprints the one card that people point to when saying that art objectifies women.
Well done Wizards.
Liliana does not objectify women in any way at all. We have gotten to a point in our society that every single picture of a women must be objectifying a women in some negative way......blah blah blah.. That is not the case. (((Sarcasm)))Picture of a girl drinking a milk shake, must be sex related and putting women down, picture of girl sitting on a beach, picture of a girl driving a car, picture of a girl on the moon at a new space station.)))
You have a picture of an attractive strong power women who girls dress up as for anime conventions. What more do you want? The picture is fine, happy to see a reprint. Sick of of seeing people claim that everything in existence must be putting women down. Then all I have to do is replace the word "women" with anything else to get the same mentality; fish, cats, arabs, blacks, jews, men, environment, whites, chinese, old people, etc. It doesn't matter what word I put in. Stop sucking life out of everything man. That artwork of her is awesome. Stop putting stuff down man. Just stop. If the picture was really as negative as you claim she would totally nude, in a kitchen, making sandwiches and giving blow jobs. Her abilities would be horrible as well. +1 do nothing -2 do nothing -6 do nothing. Instead liliana of the veil is an amazing planeswalker comparable to jace, the mind sculpter with great art to appreciate.
My suggestion listen to some comedy radio for a while, pandora is free, youtube is free there is something out there for you. ***** go make fun of somebody. The whole world is so serious and campaigning for some cause, or someones rights, everything is a hate crime, racist, sexist. blah blah blah.
"O no mcdonalds must be slandering a hate crime against skinny people every time they make a big mac." hahaha jeeze You're just someone perpetuating another groups negative perspective that they've made you believe is correct. Look at the picture for a hour and tell me what's wrong with it? I don't see anything.
I have heard vague rumors of a moustache-dispensing vending machine in a distant laundromat, across the street from a tattoo parlor. However, this information is shaky, and time is of the essence.
You understand that the print run for that Jace was 10000 copies.
*sigh* did not know that. Guess I'm gonna have to figure out how to get one, before they become even scarcer. :/ $80-100 price tag is killing me though. $40-50, then yeah sure...but man...$100.

I hope they reprint this cycle. it would be nice to give these enemy colored decks some good spells.

For other junk card references - look at the price tags of Arena, Giant Badger, Windseeker Centaur, Sewers of Estark or Nalathni Dragon.
(I still find this promo pretty amusing - how is he still $100?)
This bothers me to no end, because I still REALLY want one. :/
I know the feeling, finally got one. and as luck would have it. It was stolen. last November.
*sigh* did not know that. Guess I'm gonna have to figure out how to get one, before they become even scarcer. :/ $80-100 price tag is killing me though. $40-50, then yeah sure...but man...$100.
That sucks dude. Hope you didn't trade too much for it.
And you have some documentation to support this right?
wizards actually finally came out and said it
2 years after the promo was printed
and said not all of them were distributed
but some more were given away as prizes (forget the event)
He's the rarest promo they've done recently by a long shot, only lgs that ordered the hardback books on initial release got some to distribute.
