I had no idea the series would run as long as it did, when I first launched into it. I hope readers enjoyed it as much as I did. Even if not, though, I think it was an enlightening exercise for me, and affirmed my commitment to pay more attention to the strip, giving it the time it deserved.

10,000 Munchkin Cards Can't Be Wrong.
My friend Jan Hendricks, aka the Mad Dutchman, brings it to my attention that, at this point in time, there are nearly 10,000 different Munchkin cards, if you count all the translations:
I was looking at an old list of mine featuring all sets of Munchkin by all publishers.
When I started to update it I noticed that we are nearing the 10,000 mark for 'different' cards. Where I count all translated cards are different.
In production: Munchkin 7: USA Munchkin Booty: USA, Germany Munchkin Cthulhu 1,&3: The Netherlands This would add 620 cards
Total: 10,194 cards
To me, this seems amazing and slightly unreal. It feels kind of like when I realized I was at the 2,000 card mark, for unique drawings I had done for the game (I'm now closing in on 2,500, I believe. I'll have to go back and double-check).
I've never been sure if this is some kind of record or not. Does anyone know of any other game with at least 2,500 pieces of unique card art, done by the same artist/cartoonist/whatever?

I'll be hanging around the gaming area of Archon this weekend. I'll post my panel schedule tomorrow.
