I had a bunch of these as a kid and was surprised to find that this book was even a thing. (Thanks Amazon data collection ). Thought that I'd pass along my find.

What an insanely cool book. This year X-men was my favorite and I collected the cards. I am a bit disappointed that most of the book are just scans of the cards. You can find the same scanned images online for download =\

Nice review:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYFtxEwKQ28


SD Brethren: send this to the FP for old times sakes! To the FP we go!
I used to have so many of these cards. I specifically remember my 4th grade teacher taking them away from me, because I kept looking at them in class, and she ended up somehow losing them. My mom chewed her out. I still think about it from time to time. Those cards were awesome.
This and Mcfarlane Spider-Man were peak comics industry. To give you an idea of where the industry sits now, your comic is considered a huge success if you end up with 50k copies sold and you may actually get another printing.

I just brought back these cards from my parents house during Christmas. The first thing my wife did was look at prices trying to cash in 😀
Aww, she must love you! She sees the 'value' of you having a hobby!

Blast from the past. I collected marvel and xmen cards. My favorite set was the marvel one where you get an entire picture from 9 cards. I had holograms too... no clue where those cards are now probably in a landfill sadly.

That was my favorite too! I'm pretty sure my dad burned all the things I left at his house.

My personal favorite is the 94 Fleer Ultra X-Men set. Such nice cards that give you a lot of great information on each character.

Link doesn't work. I wanted to see if I knew these ones. Which ones had the power rating on the back in each category (1-10) but on the front the background was like space/stars? The backgrounds actually went together so if you made a collage of the cards in order it looked like one giant poster

I still got the set plus the wolverine and cable hologram cards. Ordered the book. Love this period of X-Men. Jim Lee art plus X-Men is perfection

My favorite, as well! Still have the whole set that I managed to collect back in the day.

When the pandemic hit I went back and checked out my other sets to see what I was missing. Filled out my Marvel Universe 4 ('93) and 5 ('94), '94 Marvel Masterpieces series 3, and the '94 Fleer Amazing Spider-Man sets.

Man, 1994 was a good year for non-sport trading cards.

I got this book for Christmas recently. Very fun. I still own my original cards in binders. But it's nice to see Him Lee's art blown up a little more. That Cable art is still the best version of Cable imo.
