Ha! Five!
And what is the connection between Stubbs, a youthful Alan Rickman and Satchmo? I may not have that second one quite right. Or the first one.
Or the third one.

6/12 for part 4...so that's 29/48 total.
(No idea about the link between the four bonus puzzler images; it might help if I could identify the lake in #4. And the painting in #1. Or anything else.)

I got 5 which is total of 18... pathetic.
The first picture is of a hunter named Mowbray by George Stubbs. Is that Alexander Pope? Obvously Satchmo. No idea on the lake.

Strong finish...
9/12 on 3...
8/12 on 4...
25/48...
(though that can't be the finish if there are supposed to 52...)

I think LJ that the last four are the four pictures - you're supposed to figure out what each means and the final supreme overlord answer is the connection between them. It was 4 x 13 rather than 4 x12.

I'm going to go way out on a limb here and venture a WAG re the connection between the 4 "bonus points" pictures. I'm guessing that it has something to do with
this news story.

Re that link, a lot of the time what those sorts of things turn out to be is just a portion of the decomposed body of some larger marine animal, (like a part of a whale carcass)
