  1. 136 - Thunderbird

    Can't do a collection of inactive X-Men without arguably the most famous one of all.

    Somewhere along the way, I misplaced this card, so these images are from @tradingcarddb.

  2. 135 - Mastermind

    One of the better trading card/static image depictions of Mastermind's powers.

    The power description is reaching a bit; he technically doesn't go into people's minds - he needed help to do that w/Phoenix

  3. 134 - Dark Phoenix

    Can't do a "dead X-Men" subset without Dark Phoenix!

    The description of her powers on the cardback seems to have forgotten Phoenix was also telepathic.

  6. 133 - Mimic

    As someone with a lot of fondness for the (not very good) 60s X-Men stories, I appreciate Mimic getting a card (presumably due to his imminent return as part of the Onslaught build-up).

  7. 132 - Mesmero

    Having a new villain kill an old one to establish their bonafides is an old trick, but it must sting to be offed to make the Dark Riders cool - especially when their best days were already behind them.

  8. 131 - Sebastian Shaw

    One of the fun things about these In Memoriam cards in hindsight is knowing how soon after the cards came out the dead characters would return - Shaw'll be back within a year.

  9. 130 - Goblin Queen

    Not the best depiction of Maddie, but not terrible. I don't recall her being "officially" more powerful than Jean, though. I guess maybe on the grounds she was telepathic at a time Jean wasn't?

  10. 128 - Warlock

    What a great card. To have Sienkiewicz working on this set and NOT have him do the Warlock card would have been a crime.

  11. 127 - Magik

    New category: Deceased (I'm tagging it as #InMemoriam). It's mostly New Mutants & villains.

    I appreciate the cardback text saying "reverted" and not the redundant "reverted back", one of my biggest grammatical pet peeves.

  12. As of yesterday, June 9th, 2026, the asteroid 1996 PX8 has been officially named after our colleague and friend, Angel Jorba.

    Angel was a mentor, a brilliant colleague, and a dear friend to most of us. This is a small tribute to honor his memory and his lasting legacy. 🌌✨

  13. I just heard that an old friend and colleague with whom I’d lost touch has died. There are lots of things to be said by people closer to them than I had become. But this person was kind, and classy, and creative. And by being all of that, they made the world, and so many other people’s lives, far better. If you know anyone like that, tell them so.

  14. Frederick Forsyth, the MI6 informant and journalist turned thriller writer, has died at age 86. "The Day of the Jackal," recently adapted into a TV drama starring Eddie Redmayne, was his first novel, published in 1971. Other famous works included "The Odessa File" and "The Dogs of War." Here's more from @BBCNews.

  16. Daniel Kahneman, the Nobel Prize-winning psychologist and author of "Thinking Fast and Slow," died today at age 90. Here's a tribute to him from NPR. "Danny was a giant in the field," said Eldar Shafir, a professor at Princeton. "Many areas in the social sciences simply have not been the same since he arrived on the scene."
