I recently found ALL the cards on eBay, a complete set which is now IN MY COLLECTION and that I have scanned and uploaded for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
WARNING: IMAGES HAVE BEEN REMOVED BECAUSE SOMEONE ONLINE HAS BEEN UNFAIRLY USING THEM ALONG WITH MOST OF THIS POST FOR FINANCIAL GAIN AND EVEN PASSING MY RESEARCH OFF AS HIS/HER OWN WITHOUT ANY CREDIT TO THIS SITE OR ITS CREATOR. EXPECT THE WATERMARKED VERSION OF THE IMAGES TO RETURN SOON. SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY CAUSE TO ALL THE TRUE FANS OF THIS SITE.
COUNTDOWN: This set goes from card #1 to #29 and features a brief retelling of the events in Kingdom Come on the back of the cards.
CROSSROADS: From card #30 to #50, the cards showcase the most important players in the KC Universe with brief explanations on the back, a kind of who's who.
SKETCHBOARD: These cards contain, as the name implies, sketches on 15 characters from the series. I have scanned both sides of the cards because they contain interesting info on the characters by the creators, Alex's comments are in black and Mark Waid's are in red.
CREATOR COLLECTION: This is the jackpot of this trading cards series. All the other cards, although they're cool, they are reprints of previously released art, while these contain NEW art. So, if you're not an insane collector like myself, you'll only need to get these 6 and you're set, the problem is that they're very difficult to track down. Hey, I bought the entire set to get them.
CLASSICS: These 3 cards pay tribute to 3 classic covers from the Golden Age, each represents Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman.
UNFOLDED: These cards reprint the character-filled covers of issues 1, 2 and 3 of Kingdom Come in 3 fold-out cards that sport a character guide on the back.
Of course there's the obligatory checklist card and next to it there's a promo card which was included in Wizard magazine. This promo card has the same art as card #20 on the flip side.

Great post. Thanks for the effort.
OH WOW. This is like Christmas come early! THANK YOU for all the great scans!
I caught a few of the sketch cards, but had no idea of how much I was missing. What a prize! Anytime you want to sell...!
Glad you like them! Thanks for all your comments!
thanks for this..you should post the backside of each reg card, like you did the chase card..
btw, have you update the upper deck sketchbook?:D
I also have the full set, however, I found the Golden Ticket!!! It is a special card that they only produced 40 of, it was signed by either Ross or Waid. The best part is that they actually printed the # of the card on the back side of the card. THe artist or writer also #'d it to match... Mine is #13, singed by Ross!!! Does anyone have an idea on value?
